The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 BIRKS AVENUE sales between August 1998 and May 2012 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 1999 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.
8 BIRKS AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £439,929.
This is based on house price inflation of 107%, between May 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Oldham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 107% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BIRKS AVENUE of £212,500 on 4th May 2012. For the value to have increased from £212,500 to £439,929 over the thirteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
