In cash terms the typical BN11 5 home went from £52,000 in 1995 to £317,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 181%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 23% 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 BN11 5 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 2000 (+30.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−21.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What BN11 5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.2% | −7.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.4% | −5.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
How many homes change hands in BN11 5
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.
The register shows 41 BN11 5 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 218 sales a year before the financial crisis and 112 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 BN11 5
For renting purposes BN11 5 sits in Worthing. The ONS average private rent there is £1,311 a month (May 2026). 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.
Set against the £317,500 median sold price, £1,311 a month is £15,732 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.
How BN11 5 trades
This is a thin market: 41 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within BN11, this sector trades 18% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Of everything listed here, 18% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

What another bedroom costs in BN
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BN area. 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.

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
