22 HILLCREST 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 three 22 HILLCREST DRIVE sales between February 1998 and June 2016 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 November 1998 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 22 HILLCREST DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 50.3%, between June 2016 and December 2024, 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 50.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 HILLCREST DRIVE of £145,000 on 7th June 2016. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £218,002 over the seven years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
