In cash terms the typical RM15 6 home went from £63,100 in 1995 to £343,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 150%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2020; the current median sits about 16% below that. Someone who bought at the 2020 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the RM15 6 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 2001 (+32.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2000 (−13.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −0.9% | −3.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.4% | −3.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.2% | +1.4% |
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
How many homes change hands
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 35 RM15 6 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 196 sales a year before the financial crisis and 78 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 rental side of RM15 6
RM15 6 falls under Thurrock, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,366 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £930 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,174 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Thurrock
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £343,000 median sold price, £1,366 a month is £16,392 a year, a gross yield of 4.8%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
What kind of market RM15 6 is
Only 35 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes RM15 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Bedroom by bedroom: RM prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the RM 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.
