18 FIELDHEAD CLOSE 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 three 18 FIELDHEAD CLOSE sales between January 2000 and August 2014 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 April 2009 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 18 FIELDHEAD CLOSE be worth now?
