55 SIMPKIN STREET 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 55 SIMPKIN STREET sales from February 2010 and May 2010 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 February 2010 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 55 SIMPKIN STREET be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 80.7%, between May 2010 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 80.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 SIMPKIN STREET of £95,000 on 14th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £95,000 to £171,619 over the fifteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
