ALBERT COTTAGE 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 seven ALBERT COTTAGE sales between June 1995 and December 2020 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 September 2018 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might ALBERT COTTAGE be worth now?

ALBERT COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £565,379.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.4%, between December 2020 and December 2024, 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 8.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALBERT COTTAGE of £521,500 on 1st December 2020. For the value to have increased from £521,500 to £565,379 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALBERT COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £521,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALBERT COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2020.
