1 HIRST ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 HIRST ROAD sales from December 2000 and May 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 December 2000 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 1 HIRST ROAD be worth now?

1 HIRST ROAD might now be worth an estimated £156,358.

This is based on house price inflation of 56.4%, between May 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 56.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HIRST ROAD of £100,000 on 13th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £100,000 to £156,358 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 HIRST ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £100,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 HIRST ROAD has not materially changed since May 2016.
