In cash terms the typical HA1 home went from £71,500 in 1995 to £437,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 181%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2017, and today's median remains roughly 25% under it: a 2017 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the HA1 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 1999 (+25.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−10.5%). 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 flats dominate the record here, 60% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £900,000 against £345,000 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

Annualised returns

| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.2% | −0.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.6% | −5.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.3% | −2.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in HA1
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
HA1 recorded 194 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 753 sales a year before the financial crisis and 328 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 HA1
HA1 falls under Harrow, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,759 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,379 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,765 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Harrow
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £437,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,759 a month (£21,108 a year) works out at a 4.8% 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.
How HA1 trades
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. By median price HA1 sits at the bottom of its postcode area: the cheapest way in, with the least expectation already in the price.

Bedroom by bedroom: HA prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the HA 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 | — | £610,000 | £830,000 (+36%) | £1,150,000 (+39%) | £1,600,000 (+39%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
