In cash terms the typical CM9 8 home went from £67,000 in 1995 to £453,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 211%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 9% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CM9 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 2004 (+32.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−13.2%). 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) | +7.9% | +5.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.3% | +0.5% |
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, 38 sales completed in CM9 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 177 sales a year before the financial crisis and 91 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 shape of the CM9 8 market
Only 38 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CM9 8 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 CM9 district median, CM9 8 sits 21% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
Rents around CM9 8
For renting purposes CM9 8 sits in Maldon. The ONS average private rent there is £1,151 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £805 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,929 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Maldon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £453,000 median sold price, £1,151 a month is £13,812 a year, a gross yield of 3.0%: 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: CM prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the CM area, from the Land Registry record. 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.

Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
