In cash terms the typical SR5 5 home went from £33,000 in 1995 to £142,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 99%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 7% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SR5 5 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 2003 (+42.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2018 (−21.1%). 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) | +15.9% | +13.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.3% | +2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.3% | +1.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.9% | +0.1% |
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.
How many homes change hands in SR5 5
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.
SR5 5 recorded 16 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 86 sales a year before the financial crisis and 50 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 SR5 5 is
This is a thin market: 16 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. 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. Within SR5, this sector trades 10% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
Rents around SR5 5
SR5 5 falls under Sunderland, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £701 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £519 a month here against £1,073 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Sunderland
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£701 a month is £8,412 a year, which against the £142,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.9%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: SR prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the SR area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £199,972 | £270,000 (+35%) | £414,995 (+54%) | £527,500 (+27%) |

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.
