10 MERLIN CLOSE 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 10 MERLIN CLOSE sales from October 2001 and September 2020 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 2001 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 10 MERLIN CLOSE be worth now?

10 MERLIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £270,999.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.6%, between September 2020 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 30.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 MERLIN CLOSE of £207,500 on 17th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £207,500 to £270,999 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 10 MERLIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £207,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 10 MERLIN CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2020.
