47 THE BALK 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 two 47 THE BALK sales from June 2007 and July 2016 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 June 2007 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 112% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 112% above the HPI.

What might 47 THE BALK be worth now?

47 THE BALK might now be worth an estimated £652,352.

This is based on house price inflation of 50%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for 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 50% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 47 THE BALK of £435,000 on 7th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £435,000 to £652,352 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 47 THE BALK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £435,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
