37 MILLCROFT 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 37 MILLCROFT sales between January 1997 and June 2004 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 March 1998 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the June 2004 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.
