8 MARKHAM GROVE 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 8 MARKHAM GROVE sales between May 2002 and October 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 June 2003 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.

What might 8 MARKHAM GROVE be worth now?

8 MARKHAM GROVE might now be worth an estimated £176,209.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.5%, between October 2018 and February 2025, for 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 31.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 MARKHAM GROVE of £134,000 on 25th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £134,000 to £176,209 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 MARKHAM GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £134,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
