5 ORCHARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from May 2000 and July 2023 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the May 2000 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI.
