12 VIRGINIA 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 two 12 VIRGINIA DRIVE sales from October 1995 and April 2013 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 1995 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
