5 BECKETT CLOSE 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 5 BECKETT CLOSE sales between February 1997 and March 2006 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 November 2004 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 5 BECKETT CLOSE be worth now?
