17 CLOSES FARM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 CLOSES FARM sales between August 1998 and May 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 November 2004 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
