5 HAMPSHIRE 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 two 5 HAMPSHIRE CLOSE sales from November 1998 and March 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 November 1998 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 5 HAMPSHIRE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3.4%, between March 2023 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 3.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HAMPSHIRE CLOSE of £280,000 on 7th March 2023. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £289,601 over the two years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HAMPSHIRE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
