In cash terms the typical DY3 3 home went from £63,000 in 1995 to £280,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 104%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DY3 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 2003 (+20.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−3.6%). 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
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | +0.9% | −1.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.1% | −1.6% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +3.7% | −0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.7% | +1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.2% |
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 DY3 3
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.
DY3 3 recorded 38 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 110 sales a year recently, against 134 a year before 2008. 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 DY3 3 trades
This is a thin market: 38 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Within DY3, this sector trades 15% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of DY3 3
DY3 3 falls under Dudley, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £849 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £605 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,239, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Dudley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£849 a month is £10,188 a year, which against the £280,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.6%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

4% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
"Under comparable sales" means the asking price sits below what similar homes nearby actually fetched. Treat it as the start of a conversation, never a valuation, and always view the home.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
What another bedroom costs in DY
Real sold prices by size across the DY 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.

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
