11 LEA 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 three 11 LEA CLOSE sales between March 2003 and September 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 August 2007 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 11 LEA CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 24.1%, between September 2020 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 24.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 11 LEA CLOSE of £202,500 on 18th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £202,500 to £251,273 over the three years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
