1 SWARD WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 SWARD WAY sales from December 2018 and September 2021 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 2018 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 1 SWARD WAY be worth now?

1 SWARD WAY might now be worth an estimated £364,250.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.6%, between September 2021 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 15.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 SWARD WAY of £315,000 on 2nd September 2021. For the value to have increased from £315,000 to £364,250 over the two years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 SWARD WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £315,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 SWARD WAY has not materially changed since September 2021.
