52 PONTEFRACT ROAD 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 52 PONTEFRACT ROAD sales from April 2005 and January 2018 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 2005 sale was for 230% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 230% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it rises to 231% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 231% above the HPI.

What might 52 PONTEFRACT ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.5%, between January 2018 and December 2024, 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 41.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 52 PONTEFRACT ROAD of £725,000 on 30th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £725,000 to £1,025,748 over the five years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
