ROWLEY GATES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bradford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ROWLEY GATES sales from October 2007 and January 2011 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 2007 sale was for 250% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 250% above the HPI over time, until the January 2011 sale, where it rises to 462% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 462% above the HPI.

What might ROWLEY GATES be worth now?

ROWLEY GATES might now be worth an estimated £1,785,270.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.7%, between January 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bradford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROWLEY GATES of £1,125,000 on 27th January 2011. For the value to have increased from £1,125,000 to £1,785,270 over the thirteen years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROWLEY GATES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bradford local authority area.
• The January 2011 sale price of £1,125,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
