In cash terms the typical B23 7 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £184,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 112%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 14% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the B23 7 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+34.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.6% | −3.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.1% | −2.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
How many homes change hands in B23 7
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
B23 7 recorded 51 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 386 sales a year before the financial crisis and 141 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around B23 7
The local authority for B23 7 is Birmingham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,088 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £821 a month here against £1,563 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Birmingham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £184,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,088 a month (£13,056 a year) works out at a 7.1% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
How B23 7 trades
Only 51 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes B23 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the B23 district median, B23 7 sits 10% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in B: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the B area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
