The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 MEREFIELD WAY sales from December 2001 and June 2014 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 December 2001 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
