2 MATTHEW LANE 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 three 2 MATTHEW LANE sales between April 2000 and June 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 February 2008 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 2 MATTHEW LANE be worth now?

2 MATTHEW LANE might now be worth an estimated £269,580.

This is based on house price inflation of 43%, between June 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 MATTHEW LANE of £188,500 on 23rd June 2017. For the value to have increased from £188,500 to £269,580 over the eight years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 MATTHEW LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Kirklees local authority area.
• The June 2017 sale price of £188,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
