Copthorne market report RH10 4, Crawley
The standing RH10 4 (Copthorne) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 3,452 registered sales in RH10 4 (Crawley) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 35 registered 2026 sales put the RH10 4 (Crawley) median at £500,000, up 9% on five years earlier, with a mean of £644,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,900 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 3,452 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
A postcode sector like RH10 4 is a single group of streets within RH10 (Crawley), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

| 1996 | £79,000 | £166,607 | 140 |
| 1995 | £92,000 | £199,994 | 112 |
In cash terms the typical RH10 4 home went from £92,000 in 1995 to £500,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 150%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 16% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the RH10 4 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 2013 (+36.0% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−14.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +10.3% | +7.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.5% | −0.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 35 RH10 4 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 121 sales a year before the financial crisis and 92 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 RH10 4
RH10 4 falls under Mid Sussex, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,415 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,003 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,200 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Mid Sussex
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,415 a month is £16,980 a year, which against the £500,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.4%. 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.
How RH10 4 trades
This is a thin market: 35 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the RH10 district median, RH10 4 sits 25% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in RH: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the RH area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £450,000 | £610,000 (+36%) | £870,000 (+43%) | £1,237,500 (+42%) |

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.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
