23 THE SHIRES 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 23 THE SHIRES sales between March 1999 and June 2024 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 May 2003 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
