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 three 159 PLECKGATE ROAD sales between December 1996 and November 2020 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 2017 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.
159 PLECKGATE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £262,738.

The 31.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 159 PLECKGATE ROAD of £200,000 on 12th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £262,738 over the three years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
