In cash terms the typical B27 home went from £46,500 in 1995 to £230,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 128%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 5% 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 B27 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 (+28.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What B27 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.6% | +3.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.9% | −0.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.0% | +1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 43% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £445,000 against £105,000 for a flat, 4.2 times the price.

How many homes change hands in B27
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
B27 recorded 195 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 501 sales a year before the financial crisis and 192 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around B27
For renting purposes B27 sits in Birmingham. The ONS average private rent there is £1,088 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £821 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,563 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Birmingham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £230,000 median sold price, £1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, a gross yield of 5.7%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What another bedroom costs in B
