Land registry data shows two sales for THE COBBLES since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Wirral local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two THE COBBLES sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2023 13 JAN | £725,000 | £351,593 | 106% above HPI |
1998 5 FEB | £248,000 | £82,682 | 200% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COBBLES sales from February 1998 and January 2023 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 February 1998 sale was for 200% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 200% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 106% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 106% above the HPI.
