78 FORD ROAD 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 78 FORD ROAD sales between December 1996 and January 2021 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 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.
