19 SAFFRON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 19 SAFFRON CLOSE sales between February 1997 and August 2017 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 October 2002 sale was for 58% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 19 SAFFRON CLOSE be worth now?

19 SAFFRON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £395,229.

This is based on house price inflation of 52%, between August 2017 and December 2024, for 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 52% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 SAFFRON CLOSE of £260,000 on 8th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £260,000 to £395,229 over the six years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 19 SAFFRON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £260,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
