In cash terms the typical DH7 9 home went from £47,800 in 1995 to £145,000 in 2026, roughly 3.0 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 40%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DH7 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 (+57.0% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−22.6%). 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) | +7.8% | +5.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.2% | +2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.5% | +1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 50 sales completed in DH7 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 186 sales a year before the financial crisis and 128 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of DH7 9
The local authority for DH7 9 is County Durham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £638 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £447 a month for a typical one-bed to £982 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, County Durham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £145,000 median purchase price, a rent of £638 a month (£7,656 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.
The shape of the DH7 9 market
Only 50 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DH7 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

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