In cash terms the typical GU9 home went from £80,000 in 1995 to £485,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 179%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the GU9 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 1998 (+17.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.9%). 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) | +2.1% | −0.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 31% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £715,000 against £252,500 for a flat, 2.8 times the price.

Sales activity in GU9
Sales per year, counted
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 monthly pulse, last five years
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 404 sales completed in GU9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 722 sales a year before the financial crisis and 440 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.
The rental side of GU9
For renting purposes GU9 sits in Waverley. The ONS average private rent there is £1,445 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,047 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,341, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Waverley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £485,000 median sold price, £1,445 a month is £17,340 a year, a gross yield of 3.6%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in GU: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the GU area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £473,000 | £635,000 (+34%) | £910,000 (+43%) | £1,366,000 (+50%) |
| Semi-detached | £340,000 | £415,000 (+22%) | £486,000 (+17%) | £630,000 (+30%) | £885,000 (+40%) |

| Flat | £205,000 | £279,000 (+36%) | £420,000 (+51%) | £590,000 (+40%) | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
