2 DARNLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 DARNLEY CLOSE sales from May 2003 and September 2012 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 May 2003 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.

What might 2 DARNLEY CLOSE be worth now?

2 DARNLEY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £416,925.

The 66.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 DARNLEY CLOSE of £250,000 on 17th September 2012. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £416,925 over the thirteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
