7 POLEGATE DRIVE 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 four 7 POLEGATE DRIVE sales between May 2003 and December 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 July 2012 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 7 POLEGATE DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 69.1%, between December 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 69.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 POLEGATE DRIVE of £118,500 on 10th December 2015. For the value to have increased from £118,500 to £200,411 over the ten years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
