In cash terms the typical DA6 8 home went from £67,500 in 1995 to £412,200 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 181%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 30% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the DA6 8 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 (+23.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2018 (−14.0%). 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) | −7.4% | −9.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.6% | −5.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.2% | −2.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
How many homes change hands in DA6 8
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.
DA6 8 recorded 32 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 129 sales a year before the financial crisis and 63 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.
How DA6 8 trades
Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DA6 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
Rents around DA6 8
For renting purposes DA6 8 sits in Bexley. The ONS average private rent there is £1,528 a month (May 2026). 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 £412,200 median sold price, £1,528 a month is £18,336 a year, a gross yield of 4.4%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in DA: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the DA area, from the Land Registry record. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £450,000 | £600,000 (+33%) | £800,000 (+33%) | £1,100,000 (+38%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
