The standing L16 (Broadgreen) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. The raw material for this page is 6,191 HM Land Registry entries for L16 (Liverpool), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS.

L16 is the postcode district covering Broadgreen, Bowring Park, Childwall in Liverpool. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

In cash terms the typical L16 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £293,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 129%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the L16 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 (+40.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−7.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.2% | −4.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.3% | −3.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.9% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 73% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £411,800 against £155,000 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Sales activity in L16
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 135 L16 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 219 sales a year before the financial crisis and 149 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.
What kind of market L16 is
Only 135 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes L16 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Among the 40 measurable districts of its area, L16 ranks 5 by median price: firmly in the dearer tier.
What tenants pay around L16
The local authority for L16 is Liverpool, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £901 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £677 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,279, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Liverpool
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £293,500 median sold price, £901 a month is £10,812 a year, a gross yield of 3.7%: 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.

Will L16 prices rise from here?

Moving up a bedroom in L: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the L area. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £247,500 | £342,995 (+39%) | £545,000 (+59%) | £755,000 (+39%) |
| Semi-detached | £160,000 | £194,995 (+22%) | £245,000 (+26%) | £350,000 (+43%) | £445,000 (+27%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
