16 SNAPETHORPE GATE 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 SNAPETHORPE GATE sales from December 2017 and December 2017 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2017 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, which was also at 29% below the HPI.
