23 BRIARY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 BRIARY CLOSE sales from July 2000 and September 2003 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 July 2000 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the September 2003 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 23 BRIARY CLOSE be worth now?

23 BRIARY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £217,180.

This is based on house price inflation of 125.1%, between September 2003 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 125.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 BRIARY CLOSE of £96,500 on 1st September 2003. For the value to have increased from £96,500 to £217,180 over the twenty years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 BRIARY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
