16 BRONTE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 BRONTE CLOSE sales from December 1999 and August 2004 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 1999 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, which was also at 15% below the HPI.

What might 16 BRONTE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 88.5%, between August 2004 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 88.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 BRONTE CLOSE of £155,000 on 6th August 2004. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £292,114 over the nineteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
