LEIGHSWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LEIGHSWOOD sales between May 1997 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 April 2004 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it rises to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.
