10 SPIRE 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 two 10 SPIRE CLOSE sales from September 1996 and May 2002 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 1996 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the May 2002 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 10 SPIRE CLOSE be worth now?

The 235.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 SPIRE CLOSE of £91,500 on 3rd May 2002. For the value to have increased from £91,500 to £306,874 over the 23 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
