5 LEACROFT 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 two 5 LEACROFT sales from November 2007 and May 2026 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2007 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the May 2026 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.
