In cash terms the typical CM9 home went from £62,000 in 1995 to £375,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 178%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 14% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CM9 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 (+23.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £517,500 against £216,000 for a flat, 2.4 times the price.

What CM9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.3% | −3.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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 CM9
Sales per year, counted
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
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 414 sales completed in CM9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 786 sales a year before the financial crisis and 497 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 rental side of CM9
For renting purposes CM9 sits in Maldon. The ONS average private rent there is £1,151 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £805 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,929, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Maldon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £375,000 median sold price, £1,151 a month is £13,812 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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 CM
Real sold prices by size across the CM area, straight 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £417,500 | £550,000 (+32%) | £785,000 (+43%) | £1,137,500 (+45%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
