FRIARS CRAG 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 three FRIARS CRAG sales between June 1995 and April 2023 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 December 1998 sale was for 134% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 134% above the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 137% above the HPI.
