8 SCHOOL CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SCHOOL CRESCENT sales from June 2000 and June 2005 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 June 2000 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the June 2005 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 8 SCHOOL CRESCENT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 74.8%, between June 2005 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 SCHOOL CRESCENT of £94,000 on 30th June 2005. For the value to have increased from £94,000 to £164,334 over the eighteen years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
