WILFORD COTTAGE 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 WILFORD COTTAGE sales from September 2002 and July 2011 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 September 2002 sale was for 227% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 227% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it falls to 208% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 208% above the HPI.

What might WILFORD COTTAGE be worth now?

WILFORD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £860,675.

This is based on house price inflation of 73.9%, between July 2011 and February 2025, 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 73.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WILFORD COTTAGE of £495,000 on 26th July 2011. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £860,675 over the fourteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WILFORD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The July 2011 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WILFORD COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2011.
