The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 50 THORNES ROAD sales from May 1998 and September 2013 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 May 1998 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.
