8 RUTLAND AVENUE 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 RUTLAND AVENUE sales from July 2010 and February 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 July 2010 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.
