5 BLACKSMITHS FOLD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 BLACKSMITHS FOLD sales between February 2000 and August 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 November 2011 sale was for 78% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.

What might 5 BLACKSMITHS FOLD be worth now?
