In cash terms the typical RM14 3 home went from £100,000 in 1995 to £675,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 211%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the RM14 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 1998 (+30.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−10.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What RM14 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.4% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
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.
Sales activity in RM14 3
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 25 sales completed in RM14 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 109 sales a year before the financial crisis and 83 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.
The shape of the RM14 3 market
This is a thin market: 25 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. Against the RM14 district median, RM14 3 sits 26% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of RM14 3
RM14 3 falls under Havering, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,564 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,215 a month here against £2,497 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Havering
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,564 a month is £18,768 a year, which against the £675,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.8%. 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.

Moving up a bedroom in RM: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the RM area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

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.
