WATERWORKS LODGE 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 WATERWORKS LODGE sales from April 1998 and December 2018 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 April 1998 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
