In cash terms the typical B90 4 home went from £74,000 in 1995 to £355,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 121%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 18% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the B90 4 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 (+16.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−10.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What B90 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.7% | −0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.6% | −0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
B90 4 recorded 71 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 289 sales a year before the financial crisis and 213 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.
What tenants pay around B90 4
For renting purposes B90 4 sits in Solihull. The ONS average private rent there is £1,260 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £844 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,851, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Solihull
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,260 a month is £15,120 a year, which against the £355,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.3%. 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.

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%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
