In cash terms the typical B9 home went from £34,500 in 1995 to £175,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 133%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2025; the current median sits about 13% below that. Someone who bought at the 2025 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the B9 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 (+35.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−11.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What B9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.4% | −13.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.9% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 67% of the typed total. In 2007, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £182,500 against £83,800 for a flat, 2.2 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
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.
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 62 sales completed in B9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 367 sales a year before the financial crisis and 86 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.
What homes rent for around B9
B9 falls under Birmingham, where the ONS puts the average private rent 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 £175,000 median sold price, £1,088 a month is £13,056 a year, a gross yield of 7.5%: 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 kind of market B9 is
This is a thin market: 62 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. In its area's price order B9 comes 70 of 76, towards the cheaper end of the table.

Prediction is not this page's business. Its business is the record, which says: the median is up 15% over five years in cash but down 9% after inflation. Read the volume chart with the price chart before acting on either, remembering that registrations trail the deals themselves by weeks.
What you could buy in B9 now

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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £306,000 | £425,000 (+39%) | £665,000 (+56%) | £950,000 (+43%) |

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.
