In cash terms the typical PO21 home went from £58,000 in 1995 to £303,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 141%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 20% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PO21 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 (+24.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−3.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of flats dominate the record here, 32% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £410,000 against £142,500 for a flat, 2.9 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −3.6% | −5.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.6% | −4.0% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +1.4% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
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.
The last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 520 sales completed in PO21. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,109 sales a year before the financial crisis and 607 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.
The rental side of PO21
PO21 falls under Arun, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,224 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £845 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,974, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Arun
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £303,800 median purchase price, a rent of £1,224 a month (£14,688 a year) works out at a 4.8% 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.

Are PO21 prices heading up or down?

PO21's current homes for sale
Everything above is what homes in PO21 sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 36 homes currently on the market from 3 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 46% below the PO21 median sold price.
PO21 registered 520 sales in the last twelve months; the 36 homes listed now would take about 4 weeks to clear at that rate. The count covers agents publishing to HomesIndex, so the real stock is larger. That is a thin shelf: buyers here are choosing from little, and a well priced home is unlikely to wait long.
6% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
When homes in PO21 change hands
March is when PO21 changes hands most (11.7% of the 3,714 sales dated 2021 to 2025); April is the quiet end at 6.3%. The gap between the two is wide enough to plan around: completion follows the agreed sale by weeks, so the busiest month for completions points to deals done earlier, and a seller wanting several bidders should list ahead of it.

What another bedroom costs in PO
Real sold prices by size across the PO 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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £320,000 | £364,250 (+14%) | £420,000 (+15%) | £510,000 (+21%) | £640,000 (+25%) |
| Semi-detached | £270,000 | £300,000 (+11%) | £326,000 (+9%) | £380,000 (+17%) | £445,000 (+17%) |
| Terraced | £225,000 | £245,000 (+9%) | £270,000 (+10%) | £318,250 (+18%) | £385,000 (+21%) |
| Flat | £134,000 | £182,500 (+36%) | £250,000 (+37%) | £325,000 (+30%) | £433,375 (+33%) |
Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
The risers and the fallers
PO21 ranks 21 of 34 in the PO area on five-year growth. The gap between the top and bottom of this chart is the difference between buying well and buying badly in the same city.
