8 BRACKENWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 BRACKENWOOD CLOSE sales between March 1998 and May 2023 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 2021 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 8 BRACKENWOOD CLOSE be worth now?
