5 ROYAL COURT 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 four 5 ROYAL COURT sales between May 2001 and August 2021 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 April 2006 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 5 ROYAL COURT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 15.8%, between August 2021 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 15.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ROYAL COURT of £230,000 on 27th August 2021. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £266,351 over the four years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
