In cash terms the typical GU21 4 home went from £116,000 in 1995 to £675,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 168%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 32% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the GU21 4 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 2017 (+33.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2018 (−16.0%). 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) | −10.9% | −13.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.8% | −3.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.3% | +0.5% |
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.
The register shows 43 GU21 4 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 191 sales a year before the financial crisis and 105 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.
Reading the GU21 4 market
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GU21 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within GU21, this sector trades 61% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of GU21 4
GU21 4 falls under Woking, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,618 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,131 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,694 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Woking
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,618 a month is £19,416 a year, which against the £675,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.9%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: GU prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the GU 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.
