31 WESTMORLAND 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 four 31 WESTMORLAND CLOSE sales between July 2003 and June 2016 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 February 2015 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI.
