In cash terms the typical BD22 7 home went from £42,500 in 1995 to £180,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 95%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 23% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BD22 7 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 (+30.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−17.0%). 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) | −4.8% | −7.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.4% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.6% | −1.1% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
The register shows 63 BD22 7 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 225 sales a year before the financial crisis and 115 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 BD22 7
BD22 7 falls under Bradford, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £746 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £551 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,112, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Bradford
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £180,000 median sold price, £746 a month is £8,952 a year, a gross yield of 5.0%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in BD
Real sold prices by size across the BD area, straight 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £240,000 | £347,500 (+45%) | £494,995 (+42%) | £673,750 (+36%) |
