Sold house prices in WN6 (Wigan)
539 standard residential sales registered with HM Land Registry for completions from 1 August 2025 to 31 July 2026 (our data runs to 28 August 2026). The newest month, August 2026, is left out: HM Land Registry is still adding sales to it. Earlier recent months can still grow a little in later releases.

Median = the middle sale price. Middle 50% = from the 25th to the 75th percentile. The 95% interval shows how far the median could move with a different set of sales; a wide interval means few or very varied sales. Types with fewer than 20 sales show no price.
Official UK House Price Index for the area

The UK House Price Index (HM Land Registry, calculated by the ONS) is a modelled average for the whole local authority, adjusted for the mix of homes sold and smoothed over 3 months; the latest months are provisional and are revised. Our median above is the middle actual sale in WN6 over 12 months — the two measure different things and can differ.
Area rent and gross yield

|---|---|---|
| Detached | £1,020 | 3.4% |
| Semi-detached | £830 | 4.6% |
| Terraced | £751 | 6.0% |
| Flat / maisonette | £636 | 6.4% |
Area rent = ONS Price Index of Private Rents for the local authority of each sale (August 2026): the average rent of existing tenancies of that property type — an area baseline, not the rent a particular home would let for. Gross yield = area rent × 12 ÷ median price, before costs, tax and voids.
