18 THE RIDGEWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 THE RIDGEWAY sales from April 2016 and October 2019 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 2016 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.

What might 18 THE RIDGEWAY be worth now?

18 THE RIDGEWAY might now be worth an estimated £491,128.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.3%, between October 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 33.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 THE RIDGEWAY of £368,310 on 11th October 2019. For the value to have increased from £368,310 to £491,128 over the six years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The October 2019 sale price of £368,310 represented a fair market value for the property.
