In cash terms the typical BD20 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £230,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 112%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 16% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BD20 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 (+26.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 40% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £375,000 against £121,000 for a flat, 3.1 times the price.

What BD20 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −7.1% | −9.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.4% | −3.3% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +1.5% | −2.8% |

| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
The last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 551 BD20 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 940 sales a year before the financial crisis and 597 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 homes rent for around BD20
The local authority for BD20 is Bradford, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £746 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £551 a month here against £1,112 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Bradford
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£746 a month is £8,952 a year, which against the £230,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.9%. 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.
The shape of the BD20 market
Among the 24 measurable districts of its area, BD20 ranks 6 by median price: firmly in the dearer tier.

On the market in BD20 today
Everything above is what homes in BD20 sold for. Turning to what is actually available: 33 homes on the market right now, from 3 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 46% above the BD20 median sold price.
Set against 551 registered sales in the last twelve months, the 33 homes on the market here are roughly 3 weeks of supply at last year's pace, and more in reality, since only agents who publish to HomesIndex are counted. That is a thin shelf: buyers here are choosing from little, and a well priced home is unlikely to wait long.
9% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

When homes in BD20 change hands
Take the 3,550 BD20 sales dated 2021 to 2025 and sort them by month: September completions lead with 10.2% of the total, January trails with 5.7%. That is a marked seasonal rhythm. A sale completes weeks after it is agreed, so the busy month reflects deals struck earlier in the year; a seller who wants competition should be on the market ahead of it.

Bedroom by bedroom: BD prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the BD area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £195,000 | £223,497 (+15%) | £285,000 (+28%) | £375,000 (+32%) | £486,600 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £150,000 | £160,000 (+7%) | £195,000 (+22%) | £257,000 (+32%) | £315,000 (+23%) |
| Terraced | £107,000 | £137,000 (+28%) | £148,000 (+8%) | £175,000 (+18%) | £190,000 (+9%) |
| Flat | £95,000 | £122,000 (+28%) | £171,000 (+40%) | — | £252,500 |
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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
