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 four 7 YORK CRESCENT sales between October 1996 and August 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 November 2017 sale was for 136% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 136% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 115% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 115% above the HPI.
7 YORK CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £375,196.

The 5.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 YORK CRESCENT of £355,000 on 16th August 2024. For the value to have increased from £355,000 to £375,196 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
