The going rate for a home in HD8 0

The 2026 median for HD8 0 is £270,000, taken from 73 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £319,400, well above it, the signature of a heavy top tail: a handful of expensive sales lifting the average.

HD8 0 prices by floor area

A square metre of HD8 0 home has cost about £2,840 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.

The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts HD8 0 5% below the country at large.

The price of a typical HD8 0 home, 1995 to 2026

Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

In cash terms the typical HD8 0 home went from £52,000 in 1995 to £270,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 139%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the HD8 0 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 2003 (+40.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

HD8 0 recorded 73 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 243 sales a year before the financial crisis and 142 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 HD8 0

For renting purposes HD8 0 sits in Kirklees. The ONS average private rent there is £775 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £578 a month here against £1,221 for four or more bedrooms.

Against the £270,000 median purchase price, a rent of £775 a month (£9,300 a year) works out at a 3.4% 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.

26% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.

"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

The price of an extra bedroom in HD

Real sold prices by size across the HD area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
