18 WASHBURN CLOSE 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 two 18 WASHBURN CLOSE sales from September 2005 and October 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 September 2005 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI.
