13 WESTWAYS 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 13 WESTWAYS sales from August 2008 and October 2012 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 August 2008 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 13 WESTWAYS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 72.3%, between October 2012 and December 2024, 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).
