POLICE HOUSE 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 POLICE HOUSE sales from February 2015 and August 2017 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 February 2015 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might POLICE HOUSE be worth now?

POLICE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £408,725.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.6%, between August 2017 and July 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 33.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POLICE HOUSE of £306,000 on 18th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £306,000 to £408,725 over the eight years and one month to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POLICE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Isle of Wight local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £306,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POLICE HOUSE has not materially changed since August 2017.
