The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 688 LEEDS ROAD sales from May 2008 and December 2011 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 2008 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, where it rises to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.
