256 LEEDS ROAD 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 four 256 LEEDS ROAD sales between October 1999 and February 2020 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 January 2016 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
