26 SCHOLES BANK 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 26 SCHOLES BANK sales from May 2001 and January 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 May 2001 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 26 SCHOLES BANK be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 58.9%, between January 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bolton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 SCHOLES BANK of £307,000 on 12th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £307,000 to £487,858 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
