BR4 0 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside BR4 (West Wickham). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

| 1996 | £102,000 | £215,113 | 123 |
| 1995 | £104,300 | £226,732 | 87 |
In cash terms the typical BR4 0 home went from £104,300 in 1995 to £667,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 194%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2017. The market now sits about 17% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the BR4 0 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 2017 (+27.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−9.4%). 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) | +1.9% | −0.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.8% | +1.0% |
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 BR4 0
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.
The register shows 50 BR4 0 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 162 sales a year before the financial crisis and 86 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 BR4 0
For renting purposes BR4 0 sits in Bromley. The ONS average private rent there is £1,675 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,304 a month here against £2,915 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Bromley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £667,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,675 a month (£20,100 a year) works out at a 3.0% 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.
Reading the BR4 0 market
Only 50 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BR4 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Moving up a bedroom in BR: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the BR area. 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.
