In cash terms the typical B76 home went from £74,300 in 1995 to £350,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 117%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 9% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the B76 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 (+25.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−17.0%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 35% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £440,000 against £146,200 for a flat, 3.0 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.9% | +1.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.1% | −1.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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
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.
The last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 239 sales completed in B76. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 580 sales a year before the financial crisis and 249 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.
Rents around B76
For renting purposes B76 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.
£1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, which against the £350,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.7%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
The shape of the B76 market
Among the 76 measurable districts of its area, B76 ranks 10 by median price: firmly in the dearer tier.

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. 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.
| 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%) |
| Terraced | £187,500 | £200,000 (+7%) | £235,000 (+18%) | £315,000 (+34%) | £397,000 (+26%) |
| 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.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
