In cash terms the typical BN15 home went from £49,000 in 1995 to £365,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 243%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 14% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BN15 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 (+19.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +4.4% | +2.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.7% | −2.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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 semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 37% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £460,000 against £198,800 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

How many homes change hands in BN15
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 last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 334 sales completed in BN15. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 693 sales a year before the financial crisis and 386 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
BN15 falls under Adur, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,383 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £981 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,042 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Adur
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £365,500 median sold price, £1,383 a month is £16,596 a year, a gross yield of 4.5%: 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.

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. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
