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 5 VERBENA CLOSE sales between June 2002 and March 2019 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2007 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI.
