5 LAITHES CRESCENT 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 six 5 LAITHES CRESCENT sales between October 1998 and March 2025 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 May 2017 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the March 2025 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 5 LAITHES CRESCENT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 2.2%, between March 2025 and May 2026, 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 2.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 LAITHES CRESCENT of £290,000 on 24th March 2025. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £296,367 over the ten months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
