CH61 4 local market report Wirral

Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 1,294 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CH61 4 (Wirral) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

CH61 4 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CH61 (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 CH61 4 home went from £55,500 in 1995 to £330,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 180%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not just more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 7% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the CH61 4 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 2001 (+48.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−14.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.

Transaction volumes

How many homes change hands

Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.

CH61 4 recorded 9 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 46 sales a year before the financial crisis and 31 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.

What homes rent for around CH61 4

CH61 4 falls under Wirral, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £838 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £558 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,222, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

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.

Will CH61 4 prices rise from here?

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 21% over five years in cash and flat after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the CH area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
