15 BIRCHBANK GARDENS 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 15 BIRCHBANK GARDENS sales from February 2003 and February 2023 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 February 2003 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI.
