5 SWALLOWFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 SWALLOWFIELDS sales between May 1998 and March 2006 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 August 2002 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI.
