The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 198 BATLEY ROAD sales between December 1999 and November 2017 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 July 2012 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.
198 BATLEY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £238,471.
This is based on house price inflation of 45.4%, between November 2017 and March 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 45.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 198 BATLEY ROAD of £164,000 on 24th November 2017. For the value to have increased from £164,000 to £238,471 over the eight years and eight months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
