6 SHIRES 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 three 6 SHIRES CLOSE sales between October 2000 and May 2011 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 June 2006 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 6 SHIRES CLOSE be worth now?

6 SHIRES CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £266,804.

This is based on house price inflation of 84%, between May 2011 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 84% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 SHIRES CLOSE of £144,995 on 13th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £144,995 to £266,804 over the fourteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 SHIRES CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £144,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 SHIRES CLOSE has not materially changed since May 2011.
