UPPER FLAT 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 three UPPER FLAT sales between December 1996 and January 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 July 2000 sale was for 58% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% below the HPI over time, until the January 2007 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
