WILD ACRE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WILD ACRE sales from April 1998 and July 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 April 1998 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the July 2007 sale, where it rises to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.

What might WILD ACRE be worth now?

WILD ACRE might now be worth an estimated £613,033.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.3%, between July 2007 and August 2025, for detached houses, in the Calderdale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 53.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WILD ACRE of £400,000 on 19th July 2007. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £613,033 over the seventeen years and eleven months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WILD ACRE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Calderdale local authority area.
• The July 2007 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WILD ACRE has not materially changed since July 2007.
