| 1996 | £60,000 | £126,537 | 187 |
| 1995 | £57,700 | £125,431 | 146 |
In cash terms the typical PO16 9 home went from £57,700 in 1995 to £325,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 159%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 18% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PO16 9 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 2002 (+24.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.3%). 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) | −4.4% | −6.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.9% | −0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.3% | +0.5% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in PO16 9
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 55 PO16 9 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 186 sales a year before the financial crisis and 111 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
How PO16 9 trades
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PO16 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
Rents around PO16 9
The local authority for PO16 9 is Fareham, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,213 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £857 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,997, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Fareham
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,213 a month is £14,556 a year, which against the £325,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.5%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: PO prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the PO area, straight 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 | — | £350,000 | £475,000 (+36%) | £675,000 (+42%) | £900,000 (+33%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
