55 WHINNEY 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 two 55 WHINNEY LANE sales from February 1997 and July 2012 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 1997 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 55 WHINNEY LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 69.6%, between July 2012 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 WHINNEY LANE of £120,000 on 27th July 2012. For the value to have increased from £120,000 to £203,565 over the eleven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
