The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 QUEENS DRIVE CLOSE sales from October 2003 and May 2009 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 2003 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
3 QUEENS DRIVE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £414,867.
