32 THORPE 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 two 32 THORPE CLOSE sales from August 2013 and February 2020 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 August 2013 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.

What might 32 THORPE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 43.8%, between February 2020 and December 2024, 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 43.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 THORPE CLOSE of £250,000 on 10th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £359,415 over the three years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
