1 PETREL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 PETREL CLOSE sales between December 1995 and April 2015 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 September 2005 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.
