In cash terms the typical RH4 3 home went from £81,200 in 1995 to £465,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 163%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 36% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the RH4 3 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 1996 (+38.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.4% | −13.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −4.0% | −8.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | −0.6% | −3.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.0% | −0.8% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
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 17 RH4 3 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 118 sales a year before the financial crisis and 69 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
How RH4 3 trades
Only 17 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes RH4 3 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.
What tenants pay around RH4 3
The local authority for RH4 3 is Mole Valley, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,548 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £1,136 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,575 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Mole Valley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,548 a month is £18,576 a year, which against the £465,000 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.

Are property prices falling in RH4 3 (Pixham)?
Is RH4 3 (Pixham) a good place to buy a house?

If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
What you could buy in RH4 now

These cover the whole RH4 district, not just RH4 3: live asking prices are collected per district.
16% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
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.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in RH
Real sold prices by size across the RH area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.
