3 POPLAR AVENUE 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 three 3 POPLAR AVENUE sales between August 2003 and December 2017 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 November 2005 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 3 POPLAR AVENUE be worth now?
