In cash terms the typical DY6 9 home went from £59,400 in 1995 to £325,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 152%, 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 DY6 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 2003 (+31.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−13.8%). 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) | +4.8% | +2.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.4% | −1.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
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, 34 sales completed in DY6 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 141 sales a year before the financial crisis and 96 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.
Rents around DY6 9
For renting purposes DY6 9 sits in Dudley. The ONS average private rent there is £849 a month (May 2026). 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.
Set against the £325,000 median sold price, £849 a month is £10,188 a year, a gross yield of 3.1%: 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.
What kind of market DY6 9 is
Only 34 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DY6 9 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 DY6 district median, DY6 9 sits 20% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in DY
Real sold prices by size across the DY area, straight 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.
