M27 8 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside M27 (Manchester). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical M27 8 home went from £38,500 in 1995 to £195,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 133%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. 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 M27 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 2003 (+86.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2005 (−21.3%). 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) | −8.0% | −10.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.6% | −4.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.9% | +2.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
How many homes change hands in M27 8
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.
The register shows 48 M27 8 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 187 sales a year before the financial crisis and 94 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.
The rental side of M27 8
The local authority for M27 8 is Salford, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,162 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £883 a month here against £1,761 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Salford
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £195,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,162 a month (£13,944 a year) works out at a 7.2% 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.
What kind of market M27 8 is
This is a thin market: 48 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 M27, this sector trades 20% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What another bedroom costs in M
Real sold prices by size across the M 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.
