ROSE COTTAGE 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 two ROSE COTTAGE sales from May 1995 and March 1999 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 May 1995 sale was for 84% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% below the HPI over time, until the March 1999 sale, where it rises to 80% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% below the HPI.

What might ROSE COTTAGE be worth now?

ROSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £75,236.

This is based on house price inflation of 318%, between March 1999 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 318% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROSE COTTAGE of £18,000 on 19th March 1999. For the value to have increased from £18,000 to £75,236 over the 26 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The March 1999 sale price of £18,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 1999.
