42 EASTHAM RAKE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 EASTHAM RAKE sales between October 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 March 2010 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 42 EASTHAM RAKE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 42.4%, between April 2018 and December 2024, for semi-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 42.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 EASTHAM RAKE of £167,500 on 24th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £167,500 to £238,454 over the five years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
