8 THE BEECHES 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 8 THE BEECHES sales between September 1998 and August 2019 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 October 2015 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 8 THE BEECHES be worth now?

8 THE BEECHES might now be worth an estimated £253,601.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.5%, between August 2019 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 33.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 THE BEECHES of £190,000 on 9th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £190,000 to £253,601 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 THE BEECHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The August 2019 sale price of £190,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 THE BEECHES has not materially changed since August 2019.
