Eccles market report M30 7, Manchester

The standing M30 7 (Eccles) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. The raw material for this page is 4,127 HM Land Registry entries for M30 7 (Manchester), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.

Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.

In short: the middle 2026 sale in M30 7 (Manchester) came in at £206,200, out of 44 registered, up 21% on five years earlier, and the mean stands at £229,300, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,550 per square metre over the last five years. The record behind it is 4,127 completed sales lodged with HM Land Registry since 1995, monthly refreshed, with no valuations or asking prices anywhere in the figures.

M30 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside M30 (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.

The going rate for a home in M30 7

The M30 7 median stands at £206,200 for 2026, built from 44 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £229,300, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in M30 7

Measured by floor area, the last five years of M30 7 sales average about £2,550 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, M30 7 runs 28% below it.

In cash terms the typical M30 7 home went from £35,500 in 1995 to £206,200 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 167%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 5% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+51.3% on the year before); the weakest, 1999 (−9.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years

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.

Sales activity in M30 7

Over the last twelve months of data, 44 sales completed in M30 7. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 206 sales a year before the financial crisis and 93 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 shape of the M30 7 market

This is a thin market: 44 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. Against the M30 district median, M30 7 sits 10% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

What homes rent for around M30 7

For renting purposes M30 7 sits in Salford. The ONS average private rent there is £1,162 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £883 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,761, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

£1,162 a month is £13,944 a year, which against the £206,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 6.8%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Are M30 7 prices heading up or down?

The record answers a different question than "what happens next": the median is up 21% over five years in cash but down 4% after inflation. Put the volume chart beside the price chart before drawing conclusions, and allow for the register's lag behind actual completions.

Method, briefly: HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0) supplies every sale, geocoded to address level; CPIH from the ONS restates prices in today's money; ONS local-authority figures supply the rents. Medians of real sales, not valuations. No part of this page is financial advice.
