2 SHAKESPEARE AVENUE 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 2 SHAKESPEARE AVENUE sales between July 2001 and August 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 March 2007 sale was for 69% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 64% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% below the HPI.
