245 WESTLEIGH 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 two 245 WESTLEIGH LANE sales from March 2003 and September 2022 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 March 2003 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 245 WESTLEIGH LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 5.2%, between September 2022 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 5.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 245 WESTLEIGH LANE of £215,000 on 16th September 2022. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £226,209 over the one year and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The September 2022 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
