8 LEEWARD 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 8 LEEWARD CLOSE sales between April 2000 and February 2020 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 June 2006 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI.
