25 BIRCH 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 three 25 BIRCH CLOSE sales between July 1996 and September 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 July 2020 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.
