5 BISHAM 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 5 BISHAM CLOSE sales between December 1995 and May 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 December 2012 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI.
