In cash terms the typical BN11 3 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £265,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 190%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2019, and today's median remains roughly 28% under it: a 2019 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BN11 3 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 2014 (+37.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−22.7%). 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) | +6.0% | +3.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.7% | −5.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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.
How many homes change hands in BN11 3
Sales per year, counted
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.
BN11 3 recorded 30 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 223 sales a year before the financial crisis and 101 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.
What tenants pay around BN11 3
The local authority for BN11 3 is Worthing, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,311 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £899 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,954 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Worthing
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £265,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,311 a month (£15,732 a year) works out at a 5.9% 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.
How BN11 3 trades
Only 30 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BN11 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

Bedroom by bedroom: BN prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the BN 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.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
