5 MARTIN DRIVE 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 MARTIN DRIVE sales from December 2001 and October 2008 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the December 2001 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the October 2008 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI.
