69 THE MOUNT 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 three 69 THE MOUNT sales between December 1997 and May 2016 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 December 2003 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might 69 THE MOUNT be worth now?

69 THE MOUNT might now be worth an estimated £434,898.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.6%, between May 2016 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 52.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 69 THE MOUNT of £285,000 on 20th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £434,898 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 69 THE MOUNT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 69 THE MOUNT has not materially changed since May 2016.
