| 1996 | £66,800 | £140,878 | 62 |
| 1995 | £64,500 | £140,213 | 53 |
In cash terms the typical HD9 3 home went from £64,500 in 1995 to £262,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 87%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 31% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the HD9 3 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 2002 (+45.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−19.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −19.8% | −21.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.5% | −6.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.0% | −1.7% |
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
The year-by-year sales count
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 21 sales completed in HD9 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 78 sales a year before the financial crisis and 51 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
How HD9 3 trades
Only 21 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes HD9 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.
What homes rent for around HD9 3
HD9 3 falls under Kirklees, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £775 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £578 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,221 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Kirklees
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £262,500 median sold price, £775 a month is £9,300 a year, a gross yield of 3.5%: 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.

What another bedroom costs 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.

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

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.
