In cash terms the typical B32 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £250,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 145%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 4% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the B32 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 2002 (+24.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−4.9%). 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) | +7.3% | +4.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.2% | +1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.6% | +2.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
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 £361,500 against £125,000 for a flat, 2.9 times the price.

Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
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.
The register shows 231 B32 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 578 sales a year before the financial crisis and 286 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 B32
B32 falls under Birmingham, where the ONS puts the average private rent 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 £250,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,088 a month (£13,056 a year) works out at a 5.2% 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.

What another bedroom costs in B
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the B area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
