FORGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FORGE COTTAGE sales between May 2006 and September 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 2010 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might FORGE COTTAGE be worth now?

FORGE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £239,477.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.8%, between September 2016 and February 2025, for semi-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 36.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FORGE COTTAGE of £175,000 on 2nd September 2016. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £239,477 over the nine years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FORGE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The September 2016 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FORGE COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2016.
