HD9 5 prices by floor area
Measured by floor area, the last five years of HD9 5 sales average about £2,740 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

In cash terms the typical HD9 5 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £274,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 147%, 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 9% 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 5 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 (+40.7% on the year before); the weakest, 1998 (−14.7%). 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) | +7.5% | +4.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.9% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.5% | +2.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
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
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
HD9 5 recorded 34 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 111 sales a year before the financial crisis and 81 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.
What homes rent for around HD9 5
The local authority for HD9 5 is Kirklees, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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 £274,000 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.
Reading the HD9 5 market
This is a thin market: 34 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.

What another bedroom costs in HD
Real sold prices by size across the HD area, straight 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.
