The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 97 SIMPKIN STREET sales between February 2007 and January 2016 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 July 2015 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
97 SIMPKIN STREET might now be worth an estimated £254,049.
This is based on house price inflation of 69.4%, between January 2016 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 69.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 97 SIMPKIN STREET of £149,995 on 29th January 2016. For the value to have increased from £149,995 to £254,049 over the eight years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
