In cash terms the typical DA5 3 home went from £79,500 in 1995 to £468,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 171%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 26% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the DA5 3 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 1998 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−14.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What DA5 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −14.0% | −16.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.3% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.6% | −1.7% |
| 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
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 42 sales completed in DA5 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 154 sales a year before the financial crisis and 96 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.
Reading the DA5 3 market
Only 42 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DA5 3 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.
The rental side of DA5 3
DA5 3 falls under Bexley, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,528 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,221 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,413 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Bexley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £468,500 median sold price, £1,528 a month is £18,336 a year, a gross yield of 3.9%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in DA
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the DA area. 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.
