In cash terms the typical HR9 6 home went from £90,000 in 1995 to £370,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 89%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 30% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the HR9 6 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 1997 (+50.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−24.5%). 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) | −24.5% | −26.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.5% | −6.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.3% | −1.4% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
The register shows 23 HR9 6 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 82 sales a year before the financial crisis and 62 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 HR9 6
HR9 6 falls under Herefordshire, County of, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £809 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £587 a month here against £1,326 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Herefordshire, County of
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £370,000 median purchase price, a rent of £809 a month (£9,708 a year) works out at a 2.6% 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.
Reading the HR9 6 market
This is a thin market: 23 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. 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. Within HR9, this sector trades 15% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Moving up a bedroom in HR: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the HR area. 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 | — | £295,000 | £390,000 (+32%) | £585,000 (+50%) | £730,000 (+25%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
