In cash terms the typical CH49 6 home went from £50,700 in 1995 to £330,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 199%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs.
Year-on-year change in the CH49 6 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 2003 (+38.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2017 (−9.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.8% | +2.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.1% | +1.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.5% | +2.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Sales activity in CH49 6
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 27 sales completed in CH49 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 69 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the CH49 6 market
Only 27 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CH49 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within CH49, this sector trades 35% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
Rents around CH49 6
The local authority for CH49 6 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.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £330,000 median sold price, £838 a month is £10,056 a year, a gross yield of 3.0%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

The price of an extra bedroom in CH
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CH area. 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.
