THE TORS 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 THE TORS sales between October 2014 and November 2020 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 March 2018 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might THE TORS be worth now?

THE TORS might now be worth an estimated £517,696.

This is based on house price inflation of 15%, between November 2020 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 15% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE TORS of £450,000 on 17th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £517,696 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE TORS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Isle of Wight local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE TORS has not materially changed since November 2020.
