4 RAKE HEY 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 4 RAKE HEY CLOSE sales from February 1996 and October 2024 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 1996 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.
