1 LEIGHTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 LEIGHTON DRIVE sales from August 2002 and January 2013 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 2002 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might 1 LEIGHTON DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87%, between January 2013 and February 2025, for semi-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 87% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LEIGHTON DRIVE of £150,000 on 18th January 2013. For the value to have increased from £150,000 to £280,443 over the eleven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
