7 WOODPECKER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 WOODPECKER CLOSE sales between November 2003 and June 2016 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 2011 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 7 WOODPECKER CLOSE be worth now?
