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 25 OBSERVATORY ROAD sales between April 2004 and January 2014 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 June 2006 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it falls to 50% below the HPI.
