16 POPLAR AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 POPLAR AVENUE sales from September 2021 and October 2024 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 September 2021 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might 16 POPLAR AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.8%, between October 2024 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 1.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 POPLAR AVENUE of £270,000 on 18th October 2024. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £274,934 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
