MELLOWS 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 MELLOWS sales from May 2004 and January 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 May 2004 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.

What might MELLOWS be worth now?

MELLOWS might now be worth an estimated £680,716.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.7%, between January 2017 and February 2025, 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 29.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MELLOWS of £525,000 on 19th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £680,716 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MELLOWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The January 2017 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MELLOWS has not materially changed since January 2017.
