In cash terms the typical B25 home went from £38,500 in 1995 to £185,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 121%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 17% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the B25 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 (+31.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 56% of the typed total. In 2024, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £290,000 against £106,000 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.9% | −14.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 85 B25 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 317 sales a year before the financial crisis and 111 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.
Reading the B25 market
Only 85 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes B25 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Among the 76 measurable districts of its area, B25 ranks 65 by median price: towards the affordable end.
The rental side of B25
For renting purposes B25 sits in Birmingham. The ONS average private rent there is £1,088 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £821 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,563, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Birmingham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, which against the £185,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 7.1%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

The price of an extra bedroom in B
Real sold prices by size across the B area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £306,000 | £425,000 (+39%) | £665,000 (+56%) | £950,000 (+43%) |

| Flat | £130,000 | £179,500 (+38%) | £299,000 (+67%) | £500,000 (+67%) | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
