Harpurhey market report M9 6, Manchester

The M9 6 (Harpurhey) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 2,532 registered sales in M9 6 (Manchester) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

In short: the typical home in M9 6 (Manchester) sold for £216,800 in 2026, the median of 20 registered sales, up 35% on five years earlier. The mean was £228,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,410 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 2,532 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

M9 6 is one sector of M9 (Manchester): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

Today's M9 6 prices, from the sold record

The M9 6 median stands at £216,800 for 2026, built from 20 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £228,000, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in M9 6

By floor space, homes in M9 6 have sold for about £2,410 per square metre on average over the last five years: the like-for-like measure that lets you compare a small flat with a large house, from the Energy Performance Certificate floor areas behind each sale.

Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, M9 6 runs 24% below it.

In cash terms the typical M9 6 home went from £29,500 in 1995 to £216,800 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 238%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2024. The market now sits about 11% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+37.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−19.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

What M9 6 has returned, per year

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.

Transaction volumes

Over the last twelve months of data, 20 sales completed in M9 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 135 sales a year before the financial crisis and 49 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 M9 6 market

This is a thin market: 20 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.

The rental side of M9 6

For renting purposes M9 6 sits in Manchester. The ONS average private rent there is £1,352 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £989 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,989 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

£1,352 a month is £16,224 a year, which against the £216,800 median sold price makes a gross yield of 7.5%. 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.

M9 6 (Harpurhey): the questions that come up

Will M9 6 prices rise from here?

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 35% over five years in cash and up 7% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
