18 CROFT DRIVE 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 18 CROFT DRIVE sales between September 2007 and May 2024 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 May 2017 sale was for 206% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 206% above the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 873% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 873% above the HPI.

What might 18 CROFT DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between May 2024 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 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 CROFT DRIVE of £3,499,750 on 15th May 2024. For the value to have increased from £3,499,750 to £3,609,195 over the five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
