135 SHEAR BROW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 135 SHEAR BROW sales from June 1997 and April 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 June 1997 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the April 2002 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 135 SHEAR BROW be worth now?

135 SHEAR BROW might now be worth an estimated £188,229.

This is based on house price inflation of 265.5%, between April 2002 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 265.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 135 SHEAR BROW of £51,500 on 4th April 2002. For the value to have increased from £51,500 to £188,229 over the 21 years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 135 SHEAR BROW has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area.
