8 FOREST HILLS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Isle of Wight local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 FOREST HILLS sales between November 1998 and November 2020 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 June 2015 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 8 FOREST HILLS be worth now?

8 FOREST HILLS might now be worth an estimated £218,761.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between November 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Isle of Wight local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 FOREST HILLS of £185,000 on 25th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £218,761 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 FOREST HILLS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Isle of Wight local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
