18 MEADOW CLOSE 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 three 18 MEADOW CLOSE sales between October 2007 and September 2019 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 2017 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 18 MEADOW CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 38%, between September 2019 and December 2024, 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 38% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 MEADOW CLOSE of £148,500 on 6th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £148,500 to £204,887 over the four years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
