164 FIRS LANE 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 four 164 FIRS LANE sales between September 2000 and July 2021 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 February 2007 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 164 FIRS LANE be worth now?

164 FIRS LANE might now be worth an estimated £164,424.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.6%, between July 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 164 FIRS LANE of £133,000 on 28th July 2021. For the value to have increased from £133,000 to £164,424 over the two years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 164 FIRS LANE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The July 2021 sale price of £133,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 164 FIRS LANE has not materially changed since July 2021.
