FY2 is the postcode district covering Bispham, Moor Park in Blackpool. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

FY2 sold prices: where the market stands
131 sales were registered in FY2 in 2026, and the middle one of them, the median, went for £165,000. The mean works out at £178,700, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.
FY2 prices by floor area
The last five years of sales put FY2 at roughly £1,780 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.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so FY2 trades 42% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical FY2 home went from £44,000 in 1995 to £165,000 in 2026, roughly 3.8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 73%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2005, and today's median remains roughly 24% under it: a 2005 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the FY2 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 2004 (+30.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 55% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £262,500 against £95,000 for a flat, 2.8 times the price.

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.
Transaction volumes
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.
The last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
FY2 recorded 303 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 709 sales a year before the financial crisis and 343 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.
The rental side of FY2
FY2 falls under Blackpool, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £704 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £491 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,028 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Blackpool
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £165,000 median purchase price, a rent of £704 a month (£8,448 a year) works out at a 5.1% 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.
Common questions on FY2 (Bispham)
Are property prices falling in FY2 (Bispham)?
Is FY2 (Bispham) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in FY2 (Bispham)?
Will FY2 prices rise from here?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 22% over five years in cash but down 4% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.

What another bedroom costs in FY
Real sold prices by size across the FY 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.

| Detached | — | £225,000 | £290,995 (+29%) | £420,000 (+44%) | £603,750 (+44%) |
