31 ESKDALE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 ESKDALE CLOSE sales from May 2016 and July 2021 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 May 2016 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 31 ESKDALE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 20.7%, between July 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 31 ESKDALE CLOSE of £215,000 on 9th July 2021. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £259,406 over the two years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 31 ESKDALE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Kirklees local authority area.
• The July 2021 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
