HEATHERBY 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 two HEATHERBY sales from December 2000 and May 2016 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 2000 sale was for 160% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 160% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 116% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 116% above the HPI.
