The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 CROOME DRIVE sales from July 2017 and August 2023 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 2017 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 70% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 70% above the HPI.
