5 CANAL COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 CANAL COTTAGES sales from October 2002 and September 2015 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 2002 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it rises to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.

What might 5 CANAL COTTAGES be worth now?

5 CANAL COTTAGES might now be worth an estimated £387,975.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.7%, between September 2015 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CANAL COTTAGES of £230,000 on 9th September 2015. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £387,975 over the ten years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 CANAL COTTAGES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £230,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
