16 WILFRED OWEN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 WILFRED OWEN DRIVE sales between June 1997 and June 2021 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 2011 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 16 WILFRED OWEN DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.8%, between June 2021 and February 2025, for semi-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 16.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WILFRED OWEN DRIVE of £171,000 on 25th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £171,000 to £199,779 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
