LONGVIEW 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 LONGVIEW sales between July 1996 and April 2010 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 2006 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it rises to 248% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 248% above the HPI.

What might LONGVIEW be worth now?

LONGVIEW might now be worth an estimated £1,295,002.

This is based on house price inflation of 57%, between April 2010 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 57% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LONGVIEW of £825,000 on 1st April 2010. For the value to have increased from £825,000 to £1,295,002 over the fifteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LONGVIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The April 2010 sale price of £825,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LONGVIEW has not materially changed since April 2010.
