THE OLD POST OFFICE 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 OLD POST OFFICE sales from December 1997 and December 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 December 1997 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
