25 GIB LANE 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 four 25 GIB LANE sales between February 1996 and May 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 July 2017 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 25 GIB LANE be worth now?

The 11.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 GIB LANE of £175,000 on 19th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £195,438 over the five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
