23 RISHWORTH 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 four 23 RISHWORTH CLOSE sales between August 1995 and March 2024 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 2019 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.
