15 CALTHA DRIVE 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 five 15 CALTHA DRIVE sales between January 2003 and September 2022 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 October 2021 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 15 CALTHA DRIVE be worth now?

15 CALTHA DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £204,174.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.6%, between September 2022 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 11.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 CALTHA DRIVE of £183,000 on 2nd September 2022. For the value to have increased from £183,000 to £204,174 over the one year and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
