In cash terms the typical HR2 7 home went from £47,500 in 1995 to £210,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 103%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 16% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the HR2 7 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 (+21.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−8.4%). 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) | −2.3% | −4.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
HR2 7 recorded 64 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 346 sales a year before the financial crisis and 137 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.
What homes rent for around HR2 7
The local authority for HR2 7 is Herefordshire, County of, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £809 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £587 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,326 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £210,000 median sold price, £809 a month is £9,708 a year, a gross yield of 4.6%: 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in HR
Real sold prices by size across the HR 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 | — | £295,000 | £390,000 (+32%) | £585,000 (+50%) | £730,000 (+25%) |
| Semi-detached | £203,500 | £240,000 (+18%) | £286,000 (+19%) | £355,000 (+24%) | £530,000 (+49%) |
| Terraced | £175,000 | £210,000 (+20%) | £245,000 (+17%) | £317,000 (+29%) | — |
| Flat | £112,250 | £163,000 (+45%) | £262,000 (+61%) | — | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
