The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 21 FIRST AVENUE sales between December 1997 and May 2006 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 October 2000 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the May 2006 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
21 FIRST AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £216,710.
This is based on house price inflation of 59.9%, between May 2006 and December 2024, 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 59.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 FIRST AVENUE of £135,500 on 26th May 2006. For the value to have increased from £135,500 to £216,710 over the seventeen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
