In cash terms the typical RG26 5 home went from £100,000 in 1995 to £485,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 123%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 14% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the RG26 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 1999 (+34.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

How many homes change hands in RG26 5

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.

Over the last twelve months of data, 43 sales completed in RG26 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 183 sales a year before the financial crisis and 108 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.

What homes rent for around RG26 5

For renting purposes RG26 5 sits in Basingstoke and Deane. The ONS average private rent there is £1,317 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £936 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,080, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £485,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,317 a month (£15,804 a year) works out at a 3.3% 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.

How RG26 5 trades

Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes RG26 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the RG26 district median, RG26 5 sits 24% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

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.

The price of an extra bedroom in RG

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the RG 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.
