7 BIRCH 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 7 BIRCH CLOSE sales from November 2003 and June 2011 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 November 2003 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 7 BIRCH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 66.9%, between June 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 BIRCH CLOSE of £219,950 on 9th June 2011. For the value to have increased from £219,950 to £367,015 over the fourteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
