8 GUPPY 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 three 8 GUPPY CLOSE sales between July 2002 and November 2013 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 September 2003 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 8 GUPPY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 60.4%, between November 2013 and February 2025, for 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 60.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 GUPPY CLOSE of £295,000 on 22nd November 2013. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £473,184 over the twelve years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
