71 WATERS EDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 71 WATERS EDGE sales from August 2000 and June 2009 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 August 2000 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 71 WATERS EDGE be worth now?

71 WATERS EDGE might now be worth an estimated £288,882.

This is based on house price inflation of 79.4%, between June 2009 and December 2024, for 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 79.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 71 WATERS EDGE of £161,000 on 24th June 2009. For the value to have increased from £161,000 to £288,882 over the fourteen years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
