6 VIRGINIA DRIVE 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 6 VIRGINIA DRIVE sales from November 1995 and November 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 November 1995 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 6 VIRGINIA DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 65.6%, between November 2013 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).
