| 1996 | £41,000 | £86,467 | 137 |
| 1995 | £42,900 | £93,258 | 108 |
In cash terms the typical B44 9 home went from £42,900 in 1995 to £210,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 125%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 8% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the B44 9 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 (+25.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.5%). 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) | −1.9% | −4.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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.
Sales activity in B44 9
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 45 sales completed in B44 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 212 sales a year before the financial crisis and 117 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.
Rents around B44 9
The local authority for B44 9 is Birmingham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,088 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Set against the £210,000 median sold price, £1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, a gross yield of 6.2%: 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.
The shape of the B44 9 market
Only 45 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes B44 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Bedroom by bedroom: B prices by size
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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £306,000 | £425,000 (+39%) | £665,000 (+56%) | £950,000 (+43%) |
| Semi-detached | £210,000 | £240,000 (+14%) | £300,000 (+25%) | £418,250 (+39%) | £535,000 (+28%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
