RYE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three RYE COTTAGE sales between January 1995 and March 2012 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 2004 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might RYE COTTAGE be worth now?

RYE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £366,002.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.3%, between March 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RYE COTTAGE of £210,000 on 16th March 2012. For the value to have increased from £210,000 to £366,002 over the thirteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RYE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The March 2012 sale price of £210,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RYE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2012.
