24 HALFPENNY LANE 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 24 HALFPENNY LANE sales from September 1998 and February 2005 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 September 1998 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the February 2005 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 24 HALFPENNY LANE be worth now?
