5 LINGMELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 LINGMELL CLOSE sales between September 2003 and September 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 January 2015 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.

What might 5 LINGMELL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 20.6%, between September 2021 and February 2025, for semi-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 20.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 LINGMELL CLOSE of £280,000 on 30th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £337,789 over the four years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
