8 ALWYN CLOSE 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 8 ALWYN CLOSE sales between November 1995 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 June 2012 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it rises to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.

What might 8 ALWYN CLOSE be worth now?

8 ALWYN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £331,541.

This is based on house price inflation of 49%, between November 2018 and December 2024, 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 49% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 ALWYN CLOSE of £222,500 on 16th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £222,500 to £331,541 over the five years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 ALWYN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The November 2018 sale price of £222,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
