In cash terms the typical BN15 8 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £347,500 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 255%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 9% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BN15 8 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 1999 (+22.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−9.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What BN15 8 has returned, per year

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 60 sales completed in BN15 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 247 sales a year before the financial crisis and 123 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 BN15 8
The local authority for BN15 8 is Adur, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,383 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £981 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,042, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Adur
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,383 a month is £16,596 a year, which against the £347,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. 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.

Moving up a bedroom in BN: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the BN 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 | — | £390,000 | £519,972 (+33%) | £810,000 (+56%) | £1,170,000 (+44%) |

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
