3 PLUM TREE CLOSE 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 3 PLUM TREE CLOSE sales from February 2004 and May 2019 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 February 2004 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 3 PLUM TREE CLOSE be worth now?
