17 SMITHY LANE 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 three 17 SMITHY LANE sales between June 1997 and February 2008 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 August 2003 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the February 2008 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 17 SMITHY LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 45.6%, between February 2008 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 SMITHY LANE of £167,200 on 8th February 2008. For the value to have increased from £167,200 to £243,495 over the sixteen years and eleven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
