153 TOWN STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 153 TOWN STREET sales between August 1999 and January 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 March 2006 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 62% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% below the HPI.

What might 153 TOWN STREET be worth now?

The 36.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 153 TOWN STREET of £60,000 on 13th January 2020. For the value to have increased from £60,000 to £81,689 over the three years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
