21 TOWER CLOSE 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 TOWER CLOSE sales from April 2016 and November 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 April 2016 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
