6 UNION CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 UNION CLOSE sales from April 2006 and January 2015 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 April 2006 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might 6 UNION CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.2%, between January 2015 and April 2026, for 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).
