43 BALNE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 43 BALNE LANE sales from May 1997 and September 2020 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 1997 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, which was also at 11% above the HPI.

What might 43 BALNE LANE be worth now?
