15 MIDGLEY RISE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 MIDGLEY RISE sales between August 1998 and December 2007 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 2000 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the December 2007 sale, where it falls to 67% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% below the HPI.

What might 15 MIDGLEY RISE be worth now?

15 MIDGLEY RISE might now be worth an estimated £63,603.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.9%, between December 2007 and February 2025, for semi-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 42.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 MIDGLEY RISE of £44,500 on 7th December 2007. For the value to have increased from £44,500 to £63,603 over the eighteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 MIDGLEY RISE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The December 2007 sale price of £44,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 15 MIDGLEY RISE has not materially changed since December 2007.
