In cash terms the typical E16 3 home went from £48,000 in 1995 to £405,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 288%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2018. The market now sits about 21% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the E16 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 2002 (+28.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−16.3%). 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 years (since 2025) | −4.7% | −6.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.8% | −1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.7% | +0.9% |
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.
Sales activity in E16 3
The year-by-year sales count
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.
E16 3 recorded 28 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 204 sales a year before the financial crisis and 43 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.
What homes rent for around E16 3
For renting purposes E16 3 sits in Newham. The ONS average private rent there is £1,923 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,626 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,664, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Newham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,923 a month is £23,076 a year, which against the £405,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.7%. 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.
The shape of the E16 3 market
This is a thin market: 28 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. Against the E16 district median, E16 3 sits 8% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in E: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the E area. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £545,000 | £820,000 (+50%) | £1,197,500 (+46%) | — |
| Semi-detached | £435,000 | £530,000 (+22%) | £650,000 (+23%) | £900,000 (+38%) | £1,205,000 (+34%) |
