1 LORETTO DRIVE 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 LORETTO DRIVE sales from September 2001 and April 2024 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 September 2001 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 1 LORETTO DRIVE be worth now?

1 LORETTO DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £285,011.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.6%, between April 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wirral local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LORETTO DRIVE of £275,000 on 24th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £285,011 over the four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
