In cash terms the typical CM13 2 home went from £100,000 in 1995 to £570,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 162%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2023; the current median sits about 32% below that. Someone who bought at the 2023 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the CM13 2 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 2023 (+54.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−19.1%). 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) | +9.7% | +7.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.4% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.6% | +1.7% |
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.
How many homes change hands in CM13 2
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.
CM13 2 recorded 53 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 207 sales a year before the financial crisis and 125 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the CM13 2 market
Only 53 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CM13 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the CM13 district median, CM13 2 sits 8% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around CM13 2
For renting purposes CM13 2 sits in Brentwood. The ONS average private rent there is £1,613 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,102 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,402, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Brentwood
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £570,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,613 a month (£19,356 a year) works out at a 3.4% 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.

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