5 DOUGLAS 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 two 5 DOUGLAS CLOSE sales from November 2000 and April 2018 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 November 2000 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI.
