1 IKIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 IKIN CLOSE sales from June 2011 and July 2020 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 June 2011 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it falls to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.
