SMITHY BROOK FARM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four SMITHY BROOK FARM sales between March 2004 and January 2024 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 2018 sale was for 186% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 186% above the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it rises to 202% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 202% above the HPI.
