21 LEA CLOSE 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 21 LEA CLOSE sales from December 1996 and June 2015 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 December 1996 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 21 LEA CLOSE be worth now?

21 LEA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £362,275.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.5%, between June 2015 and March 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 55.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 LEA CLOSE of £233,000 on 8th June 2015. For the value to have increased from £233,000 to £362,275 over the ten years and three months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 LEA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The June 2015 sale price of £233,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 LEA CLOSE has not materially changed since June 2015.
