16 WAYFARING Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 WAYFARING sales between November 1996 and January 2019 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 May 2002 sale was for 146% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 146% above the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it falls to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.

What might 16 WAYFARING be worth now?

16 WAYFARING might now be worth an estimated £400,807.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.4%, between January 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Bolton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 48.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WAYFARING of £270,000 on 4th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £400,807 over the five years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 WAYFARING has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bolton local authority area.
• The January 2019 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
