HOLMLEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOLMLEA sales between October 1999 and October 2020 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 July 2018 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it rises to 62% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% above the HPI.

What might HOLMLEA be worth now?

HOLMLEA might now be worth an estimated £505,349.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.8%, between October 2020 and February 2025, for 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 34.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOLMLEA of £375,000 on 19th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £505,349 over the five years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOLMLEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOLMLEA has not materially changed since October 2020.
