M30 8 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.

In cash terms the typical M30 8 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £235,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 170%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 15% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the M30 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 2014 (+32.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2010 (−17.2%). 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) | −5.1% | −7.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.3% | −0.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.2% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.5% | +1.6% |
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 8
Sales per year, counted
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.
M30 8 recorded 57 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 179 sales a year before the financial crisis and 111 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.
Reading the M30 8 market
Only 57 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes M30 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.
The rental side of M30 8
M30 8 falls under Salford, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,162 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Average monthly rent by size, Salford
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £235,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,162 a month (£13,944 a year) works out at a 5.9% 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: M prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the M 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.
