The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 29 THE ORCHARD sales from October 1997 and September 2022 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 October 1997 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.
29 THE ORCHARD might now be worth an estimated £437,010.
This is based on house price inflation of 4.1%, between September 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 4.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 29 THE ORCHARD of £420,000 on 5th September 2022. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £437,010 over the one year and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
