M5 5 sold prices: where the market stands
The 2026 median for M5 5 is £218,300, taken from 19 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £204,200, below it, which usually means a cluster of very cheap recorded transfers is dragging the average down.
What a square metre costs in M5 5
The last five years of sales put M5 5 at roughly £2,310 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.

In cash terms the typical M5 5 home went from £32,800 in 1995 to £218,300 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 206%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper.
Year-on-year change in the M5 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 2026 (+45.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−24.0%). 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
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +45.5% | +42.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +8.9% | +3.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +8.7% | +5.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.7% | +1.9% |
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 M5 5
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 19 M5 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 151 sales a year before the financial crisis and 45 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.
How M5 5 trades
This is a thin market: 19 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 M5, this sector trades 10% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of M5 5
For renting purposes M5 5 sits in Salford. The ONS average private rent there is £1,162 a month (May 2026). 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.
£1,162 a month is £13,944 a year, which against the £218,300 median sold price makes a gross yield of 6.4%. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom 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.
