78 THORNES ROAD 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 78 THORNES ROAD sales between September 2000 and October 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 November 2006 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
