In cash terms the typical HD9 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £275,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 130%, 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 16% 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 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 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−3.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 36% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £405,200 against £185,000 for a flat, 2.2 times the price.

Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.8% | −4.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.1% | −3.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.3% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 498 HD9 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 807 sales a year before the financial crisis and 541 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.
The shape of the HD9 market
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. By median price, HD9 presently tops its postcode area.
What homes rent for around HD9
HD9 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.
Set against the £275,000 median sold price, £775 a month is £9,300 a year, a gross yield of 3.4%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in HD: the cost
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.
| 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%) |

| Flat | £102,000 | £137,000 (+34%) | £192,000 (+40%) | — | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
