1 WOODCHURCH LANE 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 WOODCHURCH LANE sales from June 2008 and January 2009 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 2008 sale was for 68% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% below the HPI over time, until the January 2009 sale, where it rises to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.
