The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Rossendale local authority area for the corresponding sale date.

Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2023 6 DEC | £520,000 | £339,877 | ![]() 53% above HPI |

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rossendale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SLACKS FARM sales from October 2016 and December 2023 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 October 2016 sale was for 103% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 103% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.
SLACKS FARM might now be worth an estimated £488,628.
This is based on house price deflation of 6%, between December 2023 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Rossendale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for SLACKS FARM of £520,000 on 6th December 2023. For the value to have decreased from £520,000 to £488,628 over the two years and six months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
