In cash terms the typical NG5 8 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £238,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 119%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 12% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the NG5 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 (+36.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2015 (−11.1%). 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) | +3.1% | +0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.9% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.7% | +1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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 NG5 8
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 65 sales completed in NG5 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 225 sales a year before the financial crisis and 162 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.
What tenants pay around NG5 8
The local authority for NG5 8 is Gedling, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £892 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £621 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,381, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Gedling
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £238,000 median purchase price, a rent of £892 a month (£10,704 a year) works out at a 4.5% 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.

Moving up a bedroom in NG: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NG area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £242,000 | £340,000 (+40%) | £500,000 (+47%) | £685,000 (+37%) |

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.
