5 MARTIN GROVE 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 MARTIN GROVE sales from August 1998 and March 2019 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 August 1998 sale was for 105% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 105% above the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it rises to 168% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 168% above the HPI.

What might 5 MARTIN GROVE be worth now?
