The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 HIGHER HOUSE CLOSE sales between July 1995 and July 2015 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 1999 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI.
