18 HERON 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 18 HERON CLOSE sales between October 1997 and March 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 August 2001 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it rises to 51% above the HPI.
