| 1995 | £49,000 | £106,518 | 638 |
In cash terms the typical B98 home went from £49,000 in 1995 to £235,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 121%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 15% 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 B98 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 (+24.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−3.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.1% | −4.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.1% | +0.6% |
| 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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 39% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £375,000 against £145,000 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

Transaction volumes
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.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
B98 recorded 439 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 978 sales a year before the financial crisis and 482 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 tenants pay around B98
B98 falls under Redditch, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £904 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £631 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,341, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Redditch
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £235,000 median sold price, £904 a month is £10,848 a year, a gross yield of 4.6%: 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.

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%) |

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.
