The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 81 FORD ROAD sales from December 2005 and August 2017 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 December 2005 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
81 FORD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £559,618.
This is based on house price inflation of 36.8%, between August 2017 and December 2024, 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).
