In cash terms the typical RG24 8 home went from £68,000 in 1995 to £392,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 166%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2018, and today's median remains roughly 17% under it: a 2018 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the RG24 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 2010 (+25.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−9.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What RG24 8 has returned, per year

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.
How many homes change hands in RG24 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.
The register shows 112 RG24 8 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 432 sales a year before the financial crisis and 191 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.
What homes rent for around RG24 8
RG24 8 falls under Basingstoke and Deane, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,317 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £936 a month here against £2,080 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Basingstoke and Deane
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,317 a month is £15,804 a year, which against the £392,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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: RG prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the RG area, 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £444,995 | £595,000 (+34%) | £830,000 (+39%) | £1,200,000 (+45%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
