5 CRYSTAL CLOSE 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 four 5 CRYSTAL CLOSE sales between February 2005 and November 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 March 2017 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 5 CRYSTAL CLOSE be worth now?

5 CRYSTAL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £291,963.

This is based on house price inflation of 32.1%, between November 2020 and February 2025, for 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 32.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CRYSTAL CLOSE of £221,000 on 4th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £221,000 to £291,963 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 CRYSTAL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £221,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 CRYSTAL CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2020.
