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 3 SPIRE CLOSE sales from June 1997 and May 2015 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the June 1997 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI.
