1B QUEENS DRIVE 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 1B QUEENS DRIVE sales from September 2009 and May 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 September 2009 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 1B QUEENS DRIVE be worth now?

The 66.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1B QUEENS DRIVE of £250,000 on 30th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £417,009 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
