5 WORDSWORTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 WORDSWORTH CLOSE sales from April 2002 and August 2002 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 April 2002 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
