PO21 5 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside PO21 (Bognor Regis). 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 PO21 5 home went from £54,800 in 1995 to £305,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 156%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PO21 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 2001 (+23.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−8.3%). 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) | +2.5% | +0.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +1.6% | −1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
How many homes change hands in PO21 5
How many homes change hands
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.
PO21 5 recorded 63 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 191 sales a year before the financial crisis and 139 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.
Rents around PO21 5
PO21 5 falls under Arun, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,224 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £845 a month here against £1,974 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Arun
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,224 a month is £14,688 a year, which against the £305,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. 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.

How much did a house sell for in PO21 5 (Aldwick)?
Are property prices falling in PO21 5 (Aldwick)?
Is PO21 5 (Aldwick) a good place to buy a house?

What you could buy in PO21 now
The live side of the market holds 94 homes at the moment, listed by 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PO21 district, not just PO21 5: live asking prices are collected per district.
31% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

What another bedroom costs in PO
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PO area. 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%) |
