THE POPLARS 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 two THE POPLARS sales from June 2001 and August 2017 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 June 2001 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 130% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 130% above the HPI.

What might THE POPLARS be worth now?

THE POPLARS might now be worth an estimated £800,032.

This is based on house price inflation of 60%, between August 2017 and December 2024, for 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 60% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE POPLARS of £500,000 on 4th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £800,032 over the six years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE POPLARS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Oldham local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE POPLARS has not materially changed since August 2017.
