The below table shows the price paid for the three sales, along with the average detached price in the West Suffolk local authority area for the corresponding sale date. All of the three LOWER HOUSE sales were for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LOWER HOUSE sales between September 1996 and June 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 April 1998 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.
