BRACKEN BRAE 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 two BRACKEN BRAE sales from December 2014 and March 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 December 2014 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 130% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 130% above the HPI.

What might BRACKEN BRAE be worth now?

BRACKEN BRAE might now be worth an estimated £542,766.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.8%, between March 2021 and February 2025, 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 18.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRACKEN BRAE of £457,000 on 17th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £457,000 to £542,766 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRACKEN BRAE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £457,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRACKEN BRAE has not materially changed since March 2021.
