In cash terms the typical BN11 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £268,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 209%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 25% 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 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 2002 (+25.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.8%). 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) | −0.6% | −2.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.0% | −5.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.6% | −0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 62% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £630,000 against £210,000 for a flat, 3.0 times the price.

Sales activity in BN11
The year-by-year sales count
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
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 450 BN11 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 1,221 sales a year before the financial crisis and 561 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.
The rental side of BN11
BN11 falls under Worthing, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,311 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £899 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,954, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Worthing
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £268,500 median sold price, £1,311 a month is £15,732 a year, a gross yield of 5.9%: 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 BN
Real sold prices by size across the BN area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £305,000 | £345,000 (+13%) | £420,500 (+22%) | £580,000 (+38%) | £935,000 (+61%) |
| Terraced | £280,000 | £325,000 (+16%) | £400,000 (+23%) | £600,000 (+50%) | £835,000 (+39%) |
| Flat | £207,000 | £275,000 (+33%) | £420,000 (+53%) | £645,000 (+54%) | — |
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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
