3 LOVERS LANE 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 four 3 LOVERS LANE sales between August 1996 and November 2019 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 December 2014 sale was for 109% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 109% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.

What might 3 LOVERS LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 49.7%, between November 2019 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 49.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LOVERS LANE of £295,000 on 29th November 2019. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £441,654 over the six years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
