What might 17 FOREST CLOSE be worth now?

17 FOREST CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £561,985.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.8%, between November 2012 and May 2026, 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 69.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 FOREST CLOSE of £331,000 on 20th November 2012. For the value to have increased from £331,000 to £561,985 over the fourteen years and six months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 17 FOREST CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
  • The November 2012 sale price of £331,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 17 FOREST CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2012.
