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 85 OLD GATES DRIVE sales from June 1998 and March 1999 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 1998 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the March 1999 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI.
