Land registry data shows three sales for TREE TOPS since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the three sales, along with the average detached price in the Wirral local authority area for the corresponding sale date. All of the three TREE TOPS 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 |
---|---|---|---|
2008 10 MAR | £465,000 | £239,245 | 94% above HPI |
2003 3 FEB | £295,000 | £142,766 | 107% above HPI |
2001 6 APR | £205,000 | £109,455 | 87% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three TREE TOPS sales between April 2001 and March 2008 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 2003 sale was for 107% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 107% above the HPI over time, until the March 2008 sale, where it falls to 94% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 94% above the HPI.
