BRIAR 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 two BRIAR COTTAGE sales from February 2012 and October 2018 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 February 2012 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might BRIAR COTTAGE be worth now?

BRIAR COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £391,288.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.1%, between October 2018 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 15.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIAR COTTAGE of £340,000 on 12th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £391,288 over the five years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIAR COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIAR COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2018.
