In cash terms the typical CV2 2 home went from £48,000 in 1995 to £230,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 120%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CV2 2 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 2003 (+23.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−9.2%). 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) | −4.2% | −6.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
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 CV2 2
How many homes change hands
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 61 sales completed in CV2 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 271 sales a year before the financial crisis and 131 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 CV2 2
The local authority for CV2 2 is Coventry, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,017 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £757 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,452, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Coventry
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £230,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,017 a month (£12,204 a year) works out at a 5.3% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

Moving up a bedroom in CV: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the CV area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £305,000 | £417,995 (+37%) | £650,000 (+56%) | £910,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £215,000 | £255,000 (+19%) | £307,000 (+20%) | £425,000 (+38%) | £607,500 (+43%) |

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.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
