In cash terms the typical HD6 2 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 161%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 4% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the HD6 2 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 (+36.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−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) | +13.9% | +11.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.6% | +1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.0% | +2.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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.
How many homes change hands in HD6 2
How many homes change hands
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.
HD6 2 recorded 42 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 173 sales a year before the financial crisis and 100 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 HD6 2
The local authority for HD6 2 is Calderdale, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £750 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £543 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,116, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Calderdale
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£750 a month is £9,000 a year, which against the £255,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.5%. 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.
How HD6 2 trades
This is a thin market: 42 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. 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. Within HD6, this sector trades 21% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Bedroom by bedroom: HD prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the HD area, 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £266,975 | £369,995 (+39%) | £520,000 (+41%) | £700,000 (+35%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
