WHEATFIELD 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 four WHEATFIELD sales between December 2003 and August 2016 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 2011 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, which was also at 25% below the HPI.

What might WHEATFIELD be worth now?

WHEATFIELD might now be worth an estimated £347,557.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.7%, between August 2016 and December 2024, 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 29.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WHEATFIELD of £268,000 on 12th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £268,000 to £347,557 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WHEATFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £268,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WHEATFIELD has not materially changed since August 2016.
