The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 WILSON DRIVE sales between May 2006 and June 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 February 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
5 WILSON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £168,685.
This is based on house price inflation of 19.6%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for semi-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 19.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 WILSON DRIVE of £141,000 on 11th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £141,000 to £168,685 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
