B75 6 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside B75 (Sutton Coldfield). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical B75 6 home went from £87,000 in 1995 to £520,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 175%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 7% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the B75 6 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 (+33.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−8.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +13.0% | +10.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.2% | −1.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.7% | +1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.8% | +1.0% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
The register shows 31 B75 6 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 143 sales a year before the financial crisis and 90 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.
How B75 6 trades
Only 31 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes B75 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within B75, this sector trades 43% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What homes rent for around B75 6
The local authority for B75 6 is Birmingham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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.
Set against the £520,000 median sold price, £1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, a gross yield of 2.5%: 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
Real sold prices by size across the B area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
