16 KIRKDALE CLOSE 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 three 16 KIRKDALE CLOSE sales between October 1997 and July 2018 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 August 2011 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.
