16 HEATHER CROFT 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 16 HEATHER CROFT sales from October 2000 and September 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 October 2000 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 16 HEATHER CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 30.6%, between September 2020 and February 2025, 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).

The 30.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 HEATHER CROFT of £245,000 on 14th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £319,975 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
