5 FORSTER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 FORSTER DRIVE sales from June 2006 and February 2023 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 2006 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI.
