421 WESTLEIGH LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 421 WESTLEIGH LANE sales from July 2015 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 July 2015 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
