1 WILLOW GARDENS 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 three 1 WILLOW GARDENS sales between December 1996 and April 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 October 2013 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
