In cash terms the typical HP20 2 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £315,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 184%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 5% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the HP20 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 2002 (+21.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +14.5% | +11.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.6% | +0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.4% | +0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.0% |
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
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
HP20 2 recorded 19 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 165 sales a year before the financial crisis and 71 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.
Rents around HP20 2
HP20 2 falls under Buckinghamshire, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,477 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,036 a month here against £2,364 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Buckinghamshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £315,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,477 a month (£17,724 a year) works out at a 5.6% 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.
What kind of market HP20 2 is
Only 19 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes HP20 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.

HP20's current homes for sale
Turning to what is actually available: 183 homes on the market right now, from 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole HP20 district, not just HP20 2: live asking prices are collected per district.
35% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Moving up a bedroom in HP: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the HP 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £470,500 | £632,250 (+34%) | £930,000 (+47%) | £1,395,000 (+50%) |

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
