HIGHFIELD 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 HIGHFIELD sales between November 1996 and September 2013 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 September 2001 sale was for 163% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 163% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might HIGHFIELD be worth now?

HIGHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £673,419.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.5%, between September 2013 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).

The 58.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHFIELD of £425,000 on 5th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £673,419 over the ten years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHFIELD has not materially changed since September 2013.
