The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 SYCAMORE CLOSE sales from September 1995 and November 2002 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 1995 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the November 2002 sale, which was also at 44% below the HPI.
