12 DICKENS DRIVE 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 12 DICKENS DRIVE sales between January 2001 and October 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 December 2012 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 12 DICKENS DRIVE be worth now?
