In cash terms the typical SA38 9 home went from £44,000 in 1995 to £235,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 146%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 33% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the SA38 9 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 (+52.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−21.0%). 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) | −18.3% | −20.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −3.3% | −7.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.1% | −1.6% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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.
SA38 9 recorded 19 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 75 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 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.
What kind of market SA38 9 is
Only 19 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SA38 9 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.
The rental side of SA38 9
The local authority for SA38 9 is Carmarthenshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £680 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £495 a month here against £990 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Carmarthenshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£680 a month is £8,160 a year, which against the £235,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.5%. 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.

Real sold prices by size across the SA 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.
