The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 14 HILLCREST DRIVE sales between November 2014 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 April 2017 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.
14 HILLCREST DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £290,352.
This is based on house price inflation of 22.3%, between April 2021 and February 2025, for semi-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 22.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 HILLCREST DRIVE of £237,500 on 30th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £237,500 to £290,352 over the four years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
