12 RUSKIN WAY 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 12 RUSKIN WAY sales from August 2001 and November 2014 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 2001 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 12 RUSKIN WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 54.1%, between November 2014 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 54.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 RUSKIN WAY of £185,000 on 21st November 2014. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £285,062 over the nine years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
