2 DICKENS 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 four 2 DICKENS DRIVE sales between May 1999 and July 2023 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 2004 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.
