The raw material for this page is 2,184 HM Land Registry entries for L9 1 (Liverpool), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS.

A postcode sector like L9 1 is a single group of streets within L9 (Liverpool), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical L9 1 home went from £31,000 in 1995 to £97,500 in 2026, roughly 3.1 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 45%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 40% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the L9 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 2004 (+85.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−34.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.3% | −7.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.7% | −8.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.0% | +1.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +0.4% | −2.3% |
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.
How many homes change hands in L9 1
How many homes change hands
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.
L9 1 recorded 14 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 126 sales a year before the financial crisis and 41 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 L9 1 trades
This is a thin market: 14 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within L9, this sector trades 39% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What tenants pay around L9 1
L9 1 falls under Liverpool, where the ONS puts the average private rent 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 £97,500 median sold price, £901 a month is £10,812 a year, a gross yield of 11.1%: 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.

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. 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 | — | £247,500 | £342,995 (+39%) | £545,000 (+59%) | £755,000 (+39%) |
