In cash terms the typical B97 4 home went from £54,000 in 1995 to £220,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 87%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 17% 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 B97 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 2001 (+28.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2018 (−12.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What B97 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −12.4% | −14.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Sales activity in B97 4
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 39 sales completed in B97 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 156 sales a year before the financial crisis and 87 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 B97 4
The local authority for B97 4 is Redditch, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £904 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £631 a month here against £1,341 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Redditch
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £220,000 median purchase price, a rent of £904 a month (£10,848 a year) works out at a 4.9% 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.
How B97 4 trades
Only 39 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes B97 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the B97 district median, B97 4 sits 21% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in B: the cost
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.
