HU5 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside HU5 (Hull). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical HU5 1 home went from £28,500 in 1995 to £103,000 in 2026, roughly 3.6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 66%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2008; the current median sits about 34% below that. Someone who bought at the 2008 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the HU5 1 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 2005 (+52.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.8%). 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) | −3.0% | −5.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.4% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.8% | −1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.3% | −1.5% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Sales activity in HU5 1
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 register shows 22 HU5 1 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 167 sales a year before the financial crisis and 45 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 kind of market HU5 1 is
This is a thin market: 22 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. Within HU5, this sector trades 21% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What homes rent for around HU5 1
HU5 1 falls under Kingston upon Hull, City of, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £690 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £497 a month here against £980 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Kingston upon Hull, City of
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£690 a month is £8,280 a year, which against the £103,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 8.0%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

On the market in HU5 today
The live side of the market holds 79 homes at the moment, listed by 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole HU5 district, not just HU5 1: live asking prices are collected per district.
19% 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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Bedroom by bedroom: HU prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the HU area. 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £232,000 | £320,000 (+38%) | £450,000 (+41%) | £630,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £145,000 | £175,000 (+21%) | £210,000 (+20%) | £291,000 (+39%) | £400,000 (+37%) |

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.
