The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 FERNS CLOSE sales between August 1999 and February 2017 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 2008 sale was for 100% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 100% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 158% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 158% above the HPI.
