25 SOVEREIGN FOLD ROAD 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 25 SOVEREIGN FOLD ROAD sales between October 1995 and August 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 July 2019 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 25 SOVEREIGN FOLD ROAD be worth now?
