1 THE HIGHLANDS 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 THE HIGHLANDS sales from September 1998 and January 2022 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 1998 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might 1 THE HIGHLANDS be worth now?

1 THE HIGHLANDS might now be worth an estimated £469,470.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.8%, between January 2022 and February 2025, 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 11.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE HIGHLANDS of £420,000 on 14th January 2022. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £469,470 over the two years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE HIGHLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The January 2022 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE HIGHLANDS has not materially changed since January 2022.
