MANDALAY 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 MANDALAY sales from September 1996 and December 2004 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 September 1996 sale was for 115% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 115% above the HPI over time, until the December 2004 sale, where it rises to 175% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 175% above the HPI.

What might MANDALAY be worth now?

MANDALAY might now be worth an estimated £849,094.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.5%, between December 2004 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 71.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MANDALAY of £495,000 on 10th December 2004. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £849,094 over the 21 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MANDALAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The December 2004 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MANDALAY has not materially changed since December 2004.
