In cash terms the typical DY6 7 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £273,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 147%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 10% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the DY6 7 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 2000 (+21.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−20.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What DY6 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.5% | −2.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.7% | −2.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
DY6 7 recorded 24 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 79 sales a year recently, against 88 a year before 2008. 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.
What tenants pay around DY6 7
The local authority for DY6 7 is Dudley, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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.
Average monthly rent by size, Dudley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £273,500 median purchase price, a rent of £849 a month (£10,188 a year) works out at a 3.7% 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 DY6 7 market
This is a thin market: 24 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.

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