WATERSMEET 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 WATERSMEET sales from June 2019 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 June 2019 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
