In cash terms the typical CT17 9 home went from £42,500 in 1995 to £227,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 146%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 14% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CT17 9 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 (+23.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−6.8%). 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) | +7.1% | +4.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.1% | −2.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.4% | +1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 53 CT17 9 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 213 sales a year before the financial crisis and 105 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 CT17 9
The local authority for CT17 9 is Dover, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,012 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £722 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,649, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Dover
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £227,000 median sold price, £1,012 a month is £12,144 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: 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.
Reading the CT17 9 market
This is a thin market: 53 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.

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

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £465,000 (+33%) | £665,000 (+43%) | £930,000 (+40%) |
