In cash terms the typical HD9 2 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £270,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 126%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 23% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the HD9 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 2012 (+48.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−27.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What HD9 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.5% | −13.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.5% | −5.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.5% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.6% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 23 sales completed in HD9 2. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 123 sales a year before the financial crisis and 73 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
The rental side of HD9 2
HD9 2 falls under Kirklees, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £775 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £578 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,221, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Kirklees
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
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.
The shape of the HD9 2 market
This is a thin market: 23 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. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in HD
What homes of each size actually sold for across the HD area, 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £266,975 | £369,995 (+39%) | £520,000 (+41%) | £700,000 (+35%) |
| Semi-detached | £178,000 | £198,000 (+11%) | £255,000 (+29%) | £322,500 (+26%) | £410,000 (+27%) |

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.
