78 LONGSIGHT LANE 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 two 78 LONGSIGHT LANE sales from September 2006 and November 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 September 2006 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 78 LONGSIGHT LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 49.8%, between November 2018 and December 2024, 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 49.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 78 LONGSIGHT LANE of £162,500 on 22nd November 2018. For the value to have increased from £162,500 to £243,360 over the five years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
