In cash terms the typical B69 home went from £41,500 in 1995 to £227,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 152%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.
Year-on-year change in the B69 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 (+34.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.3%). 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 semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 46% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £267,500 against £115,000 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +6.7% | +4.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.5% | +1.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.2% | +2.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
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.
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
B69 recorded 194 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 575 sales a year before the financial crisis and 266 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the B69 market
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.
What homes rent for around B69
B69 falls under Sandwell, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £940 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £672 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,388, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Sandwell
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £227,500 median purchase price, a rent of £940 a month (£11,280 a year) works out at a 5.0% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: B prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the B area, from the Land Registry record. 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%) |

| 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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
