27 MATTHEW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 MATTHEW CLOSE sales between September 2002 and August 2009 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 2004 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 27 MATTHEW CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 100.9%, between August 2009 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Oldham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 100.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 MATTHEW CLOSE of £98,000 on 6th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £98,000 to £196,931 over the sixteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 27 MATTHEW CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Oldham local authority area.
