KAREN 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 KAREN sales between March 2007 and March 2016 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 2009 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
