| 1996 | £42,000 | £88,576 | 669 |
| 1995 | £43,000 | £93,475 | 576 |
In cash terms the typical CT9 home went from £43,000 in 1995 to £277,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 196%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 17% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CT9 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, 2011 (−8.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.2% | −2.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.3% | +0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 33% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £430,000 against £164,000 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

Sales activity in CT9
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 475 sales completed in CT9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,166 sales a year before the financial crisis and 552 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.
What homes rent for around CT9
CT9 falls under Thanet, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,109 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £766 a month here against £1,669 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Thanet
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £277,000 median sold price, £1,109 a month is £13,308 a year, a gross yield of 4.8%: 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: CT prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CT area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £465,000 (+33%) | £665,000 (+43%) | £930,000 (+40%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
