PR9 sold prices: where the market stands
The PR9 median stands at £200,000 for 2026, built from 265 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £219,400, a little above it, the familiar pattern where pricier homes stretch the average.
Price per square metre in PR9
The last five years of sales put PR9 at roughly £2,260 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.
The national median for England and Wales is £285,000, which puts PR9 30% below the country at large.

| 1996 | £50,000 | £105,448 | 752 |
| 1995 | £51,000 | £110,866 | 566 |
In cash terms the typical PR9 home went from £51,000 in 1995 to £200,000 in 2026, roughly 3.9 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 80%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 22% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PR9 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 2003 (+27.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−7.6%). 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 semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 51% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £305,000 against £116,000 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

| Semi-detached | £225,000 | 122 | 12,748 |
| Terraced | £170,000 | 22 | 1,709 |
| Flats | £116,000 | 74 | 6,100 |
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −4.8% | −7.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.2% |
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.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
The register shows 553 PR9 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 1,017 sales a year before the financial crisis and 672 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
Rents around PR9
The local authority for PR9 is Sefton, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £928 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £616 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,400, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Sefton
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £200,000 median sold price, £928 a month is £11,136 a year, a gross yield of 5.6%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Bedroom by bedroom: PR prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PR area. 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 | — | £243,000 | £325,000 (+34%) | £475,000 (+46%) | £654,500 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £164,975 | £189,950 (+15%) | £228,000 (+20%) | £295,000 (+29%) | £410,000 (+39%) |

| Flat | £98,000 | £130,000 (+33%) | £195,000 (+50%) | £280,000 (+44%) | — |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
