14 MARTIN DRIVE 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 14 MARTIN DRIVE sales from November 1999 and May 2016 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 November 1999 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 81% above the HPI.
