5 HIGHER LYDGATE PARK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 HIGHER LYDGATE PARK sales from March 2016 and October 2018 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 2016 sale was for 231% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 231% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 178% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 178% above the HPI.

What might 5 HIGHER LYDGATE PARK be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 46.5%, between October 2018 and December 2024, for 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 46.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HIGHER LYDGATE PARK of £660,000 on 12th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £660,000 to £966,698 over the five years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
