7 HAMMER LANE 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 four 7 HAMMER LANE sales between May 1995 and November 2007 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 August 2007 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the November 2007 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 7 HAMMER LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.9%, between November 2007 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).

The 41.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 HAMMER LANE of £194,995 on 19th November 2007. For the value to have increased from £194,995 to £276,631 over the eighteen years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
