3 POPLAR GROVE 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 GROVE sales between September 1997 and January 2024 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 2003 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.

What might 3 POPLAR GROVE be worth now?

3 POPLAR GROVE might now be worth an estimated £163,859.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.7%, between January 2024 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 5.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 POPLAR GROVE of £155,000 on 31st January 2024. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £163,859 over the one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
