In cash terms the typical KT8 9 home went from £210,000 in 1995 to £645,000 in 2026, roughly 3.1 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 41%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2019; the current median sits about 39% below that. Someone who bought at the 2019 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the KT8 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 2010 (+31.2% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−26.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What KT8 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −13.3% | −15.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.3% | −6.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.4% | −3.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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
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 21 KT8 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 121 sales a year before the financial crisis and 68 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
How KT8 9 trades
This is a thin market: 21 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Within KT8, this sector trades 11% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What homes rent for around KT8 9
For renting purposes KT8 9 sits in Elmbridge. The ONS average private rent there is £1,831 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,222 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,797, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Elmbridge
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £645,000 median sold price, £1,831 a month is £21,972 a year, a gross yield of 3.4%: 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.

What another bedroom costs in KT
Real sold prices by size across the KT area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
