THE TOWER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE TOWER sales from March 2007 and February 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 March 2007 sale was for 155% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 155% above the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it rises to 244% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 244% above the HPI.

What might THE TOWER be worth now?

THE TOWER might now be worth an estimated £940,986.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.5%, between February 2012 and December 2024, 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 66.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE TOWER of £565,000 on 16th February 2012. For the value to have increased from £565,000 to £940,986 over the eleven years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE TOWER has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The February 2012 sale price of £565,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE TOWER has not materially changed since February 2012.
