6 BIRCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Isle of Wight local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 BIRCH CLOSE sales from November 2019 and November 2021 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 November 2019 sale was for 60% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% below the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 65% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% below the HPI.

What might 6 BIRCH CLOSE be worth now?
