KARELLA 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 KARELLA sales from May 2006 and October 2014 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 2006 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might KARELLA be worth now?

KARELLA might now be worth an estimated £296,872.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.5%, between October 2014 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 60.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KARELLA of £185,000 on 3rd October 2014. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £296,872 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KARELLA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KARELLA has not materially changed since October 2014.
