The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 HOWCROFT COURT sales between August 2000 and March 2006 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 2003 sale was for 97% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 97% above the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it falls to 72% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 72% above the HPI.
1 HOWCROFT COURT might now be worth an estimated £533,652.
This is based on house price inflation of 61.7%, between March 2006 and December 2024, for 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 61.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HOWCROFT COURT of £330,000 on 15th March 2006. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £533,652 over the seventeen years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
