In cash terms the typical SA11 2 home went from £32,000 in 1995 to £130,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 87%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 20% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SA11 2 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 2004 (+54.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−18.0%). 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) | −6.5% | −8.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.8% | −1.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.8% | +2.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.7% | −1.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 56 SA11 2 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 209 sales a year before the financial crisis and 114 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 kind of market SA11 2 is
This is a thin market: 56 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. Within SA11, this sector trades 10% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
The rental side of SA11 2
The local authority for SA11 2 is Neath Port Talbot, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £681 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £493 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £967, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Neath Port Talbot
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £130,000 median purchase price, a rent of £681 a month (£8,172 a year) works out at a 6.3% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in SA
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the SA 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 | — | £225,000 | £300,000 (+33%) | £420,000 (+40%) | £518,750 (+24%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
