| 1995 | £36,000 | £78,258 | 117 |
In cash terms the typical HX3 9 home went from £36,000 in 1995 to £170,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 117%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2005. The market now sits about 10% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the HX3 9 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 2003 (+44.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−12.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What HX3 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.5% | +3.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.4% | −0.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.9% | +1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 55 HX3 9 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 201 sales a year before the financial crisis and 95 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 tenants pay around HX3 9
HX3 9 falls under Calderdale, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £750 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £543 a month here against £1,116 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Calderdale
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £170,000 median sold price, £750 a month is £9,000 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: 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 shape of the HX3 9 market
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes HX3 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within HX3, this sector trades 8% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Bedroom by bedroom: HX prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the HX 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £255,000 | £367,500 (+44%) | £510,000 (+39%) | £611,250 (+20%) |

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