THE FIRS 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 two THE FIRS sales from October 2005 and August 2013 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 October 2005 sale was for 128% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 128% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it rises to 152% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 152% above the HPI.

What might THE FIRS be worth now?

THE FIRS might now be worth an estimated £1,134,688.

This is based on house price inflation of 63.3%, between August 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE FIRS of £695,000 on 20th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £695,000 to £1,134,688 over the twelve years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE FIRS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The August 2013 sale price of £695,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE FIRS has not materially changed since August 2013.
