In cash terms the typical KT16 8 home went from £78,000 in 1995 to £415,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 145%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2016, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2016 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the KT16 8 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 2014 (+24.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−9.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What KT16 8 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.4% | −4.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.0% | −2.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.7% | −1.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 42 sales completed in KT16 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 188 sales a year before the financial crisis and 87 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 KT16 8 is
Only 42 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes KT16 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
Rents around KT16 8
KT16 8 falls under Runnymede, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,575 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,076 a month here against £2,393 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Runnymede
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,575 a month is £18,900 a year, which against the £415,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.6%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: KT prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the KT area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
