The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 37 THE POPLARS sales from July 2005 and April 2015 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 July 2005 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
37 THE POPLARS might now be worth an estimated £206,326.
This is based on house price inflation of 65.1%, between April 2015 and December 2024, for semi-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 65.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 37 THE POPLARS of £125,000 on 23rd April 2015. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £206,326 over the eight years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
