4 DOVECOTE CLOSE 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 four 4 DOVECOTE CLOSE sales between January 1997 and August 2021 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 October 2014 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might 4 DOVECOTE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 18.5%, between August 2021 and December 2024, 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 18.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 DOVECOTE CLOSE of £425,000 on 13th August 2021. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £503,834 over the two years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
