In cash terms the typical M27 5 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £310,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 217%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.

Year-on-year change in the M27 5 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 2002 (+27.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−16.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

The long view: annualised growth

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.

The register shows 43 M27 5 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 145 sales a year before the financial crisis and 112 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 homes rent for around M27 5

The local authority for M27 5 is Salford, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,162 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £883 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,761 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Against the £310,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,162 a month (£13,944 a year) works out at a 4.5% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

How M27 5 trades

Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes M27 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the M27 district median, M27 5 sits 27% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.

What another bedroom costs in M

Real sold prices by size across the M 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.
