The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26A ALTON ROAD sales between May 2000 and April 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 November 2002 sale was for 83% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 101% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 101% above the HPI.
