129 PLATT FOLD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 129 PLATT FOLD ROAD sales from December 2016 and November 2023 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 2016 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.
