FRANCES 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 FRANCES sales from May 2010 and February 2022 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 May 2010 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.
