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 87 PRESTON NEW ROAD sales from December 1999 and December 2007 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 December 1999 sale was for 89% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 89% above the HPI over time, until the December 2007 sale, where it rises to 170% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 170% above the HPI.
87 PRESTON NEW ROAD might now be worth an estimated £471,656.
