21 THE BALK 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 21 THE BALK sales from March 2010 and July 2019 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 March 2010 sale was for 281% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 281% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 84% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 84% above the HPI.

What might 21 THE BALK be worth now?

21 THE BALK might now be worth an estimated £566,803.

This is based on house price inflation of 35%, between July 2019 and February 2025, for 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 35% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 THE BALK of £420,000 on 24th July 2019. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £566,803 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 THE BALK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The July 2019 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 THE BALK has not materially changed since July 2019.
