7 THE CHESTNUTS 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 7 THE CHESTNUTS sales from March 1999 and May 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 March 1999 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
