Everything below comes from 5,419 sales recorded by HM Land Registry in DY1 2 (Dudley) since 1995, real completion prices from real purchases, alongside the ONS's current rent figures.

In short: a typical DY1 2 (Dudley) home changed hands for £235,000 in 2026 (median of 47 registered sales, up 34% on five years earlier), with the mean at £232,500, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,600 per square metre over the last five years. Source: 5,419 completed sales on the HM Land Registry record since 1995, updated with each monthly release. No valuations, no asking prices.

A postcode sector like DY1 2 is a single group of streets within DY1 (Dudley), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

What buyers actually paid in DY1 2

The 2026 median for DY1 2 is £235,000, taken from 47 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £232,500, almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.

Price per square metre in DY1 2

The last five years of sales put DY1 2 at roughly £2,600 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.

The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts DY1 2 18% below the country at large.

In cash terms the typical DY1 2 home went from £46,000 in 1995 to £235,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 135%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.

The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+31.8% on the year before); the weakest, 1999 (−23.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years

The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.

The turnover behind the prices

Over the last twelve months of data, 47 sales completed in DY1 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 223 sales a year before the financial crisis and 104 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.

Reading the DY1 2 market

Only 47 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DY1 2 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. Against the DY1 district median, DY1 2 sits 8% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What tenants pay around DY1 2

DY1 2 falls under Dudley, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £849 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £605 a month here against £1,239 for four or more bedrooms.

Set against the £235,000 median sold price, £849 a month is £10,188 a year, a gross yield of 4.3%: 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.

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.
