In cash terms the typical B97 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £279,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 114%, 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 14% 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 B97 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 2004 (+22.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−7.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.4% | −2.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £393,800 against £128,500 for a flat, 3.1 times the price.

How many homes change hands in B97
How many homes change hands
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.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 437 B97 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 845 sales a year before the financial crisis and 465 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of B97
For renting purposes B97 sits in Redditch. The ONS average private rent there is £904 a month (May 2026). 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 £279,000 median purchase price, a rent of £904 a month (£10,848 a year) works out at a 3.9% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in B
What homes of each size actually sold for across the B area, 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.
| 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%) |

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