In cash terms the typical CR2 0 home went from £106,000 in 1995 to £570,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 147%, 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 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the CR2 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 2002 (+29.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−23.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

The long view: annualised growth

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.

Sales activity in CR2 0

The year-by-year sales count

Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.

Over the last twelve months of data, 53 sales completed in CR2 0. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 220 sales a year before the financial crisis and 120 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.

What tenants pay around CR2 0

For renting purposes CR2 0 sits in Croydon. The ONS average private rent there is £1,572 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,256 a month here against £2,654 for four or more bedrooms.

£1,572 a month is £18,864 a year, which against the £570,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.3%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

What kind of market CR2 0 is

Only 53 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CR2 0 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. Within CR2, this sector trades 26% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

CR2's current homes for sale

This is what you could actually buy today: 191 homes currently on the market from 13 agents publishing to HomesIndex.

These cover the whole CR2 district, not just CR2 0: live asking prices are collected per district.

37% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.

The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

Moving up a bedroom in CR: the cost

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CR 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.

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the CR area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
