In cash terms the typical RG28 7 home went from £69,500 in 1995 to £435,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 188%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2019. The market now sits about 9% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the RG28 7 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 1998 (+28.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−4.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What RG28 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.7% | +6.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Sales activity in RG28 7
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
RG28 7 recorded 37 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 121 sales a year before the financial crisis and 86 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 RG28 7
RG28 7 falls under Basingstoke and Deane, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,317 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £936 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,080 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Basingstoke and Deane
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £435,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,317 a month (£15,804 a year) works out at a 3.6% 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.
What kind of market RG28 7 is
Only 37 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes RG28 7 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Moving up a bedroom in RG: the cost
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.
