8 HEATHER CLOSE 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 8 HEATHER CLOSE sales from March 1999 and July 1999 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 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the July 1999 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 8 HEATHER CLOSE be worth now?

8 HEATHER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £327,099.

This is based on house price inflation of 291.7%, between July 1999 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 291.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 HEATHER CLOSE of £83,500 on 30th July 1999. For the value to have increased from £83,500 to £327,099 over the 26 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 HEATHER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The July 1999 sale price of £83,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 HEATHER CLOSE has not materially changed since July 1999.
