7 THE OVAL 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 7 THE OVAL sales between April 2005 and August 2021 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 2016 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.
