In cash terms the typical BD6 home went from £41,500 in 1995 to £174,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 93%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 12% 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 BD6 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 (+27.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−17.6%). 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 semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 51% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £275,000 against £92,000 for a flat, 3.0 times the price.

What BD6 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.5% | +3.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.2% | +1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.5% | +1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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
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.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 353 BD6 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 826 sales a year before the financial crisis and 354 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 BD6
BD6 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.
£746 a month is £8,952 a year, which against the £174,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.1%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: BD prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BD area, 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.
