The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 DOUGLAS ROAD sales between July 2002 and November 2018 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 2007 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
16 DOUGLAS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £201,725.
