3 FLAX CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rossendale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 FLAX CLOSE sales from May 1998 and April 2023 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 1998 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 3 FLAX CLOSE be worth now?

3 FLAX CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £319,768.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.8%, between April 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Rossendale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
