STARLIGHT COTTAGE 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 five STARLIGHT COTTAGE sales between November 2000 and August 2024 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 July 2007 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.
