2 BIRCHWAY 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 2 BIRCHWAY sales from April 2003 and September 2018 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 April 2003 sale was for 143% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 143% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 117% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 117% above the HPI.

What might 2 BIRCHWAY be worth now?

2 BIRCHWAY might now be worth an estimated £803,438.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.6%, between September 2018 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 30.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 BIRCHWAY of £615,000 on 17th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £803,438 over the five years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 BIRCHWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £615,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 BIRCHWAY has not materially changed since September 2018.
