17 OAKWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

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 three 17 OAKWOOD CLOSE sales between September 1999 and January 2009 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 February 2003 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the January 2009 sale, where it falls to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.

What might 17 OAKWOOD CLOSE be worth now?
