2 SOVEREIGN 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 five 2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE sales between June 1998 and March 2024 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 2019 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE be worth now?

2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £315,299.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.7%, between March 2024 and February 2025, 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 8.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE of £290,000 on 5th March 2024. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £315,299 over the one year and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The March 2024 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 SOVEREIGN CLOSE has not materially changed since March 2024.
