Greasby market report CH49 1, Wirral
The standing CH49 1 (Greasby) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 1,090 registered sales in CH49 1 (Wirral) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: the 2026 median for CH49 1 (Wirral) is £332,500, from 10 registered sales, up 21% on five years earlier; the mean is £320,200, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,100 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 1,090 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
CH49 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CH49 (Wirral). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical CH49 1 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £332,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 178%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2024, and today's median remains roughly 12% under it: a 2024 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CH49 1 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+31.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−8.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CH49 1 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +0.5% | −1.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.9% | −0.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in CH49 1
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
CH49 1 recorded 10 sales in the last twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 48 sales a year over the last five years against 35 before the financial crisis. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the CH49 1 market
Only 10 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CH49 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the CH49 district median, CH49 1 sits 36% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around CH49 1
The local authority for CH49 1 is Wirral, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £558 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,222 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Wirral
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £332,500 median purchase price, a rent of £838 a month (£10,056 a year) works out at a 3.0% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

CH49's current homes for sale
This is what you could actually buy today: 184 homes currently on the market from 5 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole CH49 district, not just CH49 1: live asking prices are collected per district.
14% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Moving up a bedroom in CH: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the CH area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £248,000 | £350,000 (+41%) | £557,000 (+59%) | £782,500 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £170,000 | £200,000 (+18%) | £245,000 (+23%) | £330,000 (+35%) | £425,000 (+29%) |
| Terraced | £145,500 | £158,000 (+9%) | £170,000 (+8%) | £227,500 (+34%) | £310,000 (+36%) |
| Flat | £112,500 | £157,000 (+40%) | £230,000 (+46%) | £335,000 (+46%) | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
