ALMA COTTAGE 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 two ALMA COTTAGE sales from April 2011 and August 2017 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 April 2011 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might ALMA COTTAGE be worth now?

ALMA COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £475,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 22%, between August 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 22% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALMA COTTAGE of £390,000 on 25th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £390,000 to £475,921 over the eight years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALMA COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £390,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALMA COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2017.
