28 HOWCROFT GARDENS 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 28 HOWCROFT GARDENS sales from June 2000 and June 2015 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the June 2000 sale was for 188% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 188% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 128% above the HPI.
