8 BALMORAL CLOSE 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 8 BALMORAL CLOSE sales from February 2012 and December 2013 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 February 2012 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 8 BALMORAL CLOSE be worth now?

The 82.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BALMORAL CLOSE of £170,000 on 20th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £310,948 over the twelve years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
