8 DEWHAM 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 three 8 DEWHAM CLOSE sales between November 2005 and October 2021 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 March 2012 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 8 DEWHAM CLOSE be worth now?
