2 ROCK COTTAGES 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 two 2 ROCK COTTAGES sales from September 1996 and October 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 September 1996 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might 2 ROCK COTTAGES be worth now?

2 ROCK COTTAGES might now be worth an estimated £393,184.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.5%, between October 2024 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 0.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 ROCK COTTAGES of £395,000 on 28th October 2024. For the value to have decreased from £395,000 to £393,184 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 ROCK COTTAGES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £395,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 ROCK COTTAGES has not materially changed since October 2024.
