The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five MERE HOUSE sales between September 1995 and September 2009 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 August 2006 sale was for 294% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 294% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it falls to 225% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 225% above the HPI.
MERE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £890,762.
This is based on house price inflation of 80%, between September 2009 and July 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 80% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MERE HOUSE of £495,000 on 14th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £890,762 over the sixteen years and two months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
