23 KENT CLOSE 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 four 23 KENT CLOSE sales between April 2001 and August 2014 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 August 2007 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might 23 KENT CLOSE be worth now?

23 KENT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £428,187.

This is based on house price inflation of 54%, between August 2014 and February 2025, 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 54% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 KENT CLOSE of £278,000 on 15th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £278,000 to £428,187 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 KENT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
