7 LANCASTER CLOSE 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 three 7 LANCASTER CLOSE sales between February 1999 and November 2000 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 December 1999 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the November 2000 sale, where it falls to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.

What might 7 LANCASTER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 261.1%, between November 2000 and April 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 261.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 LANCASTER CLOSE of £136,500 on 24th November 2000. For the value to have increased from £136,500 to £492,901 over the 26 years and seven months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
