In cash terms the typical SS0 9 home went from £34,000 in 1995 to £340,000 in 2026, roughly 10 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 360%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.
Year-on-year change in the SS0 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 2003 (+35.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−8.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What SS0 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +18.1% | +15.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.7% | −0.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.0% | +2.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.8% | +2.0% |
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.
How many homes change hands in SS0 9
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 67 SS0 9 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 479 sales a year before the financial crisis and 174 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 homes rent for around SS0 9
For renting purposes SS0 9 sits in Southend-on-Sea. The ONS average private rent there is £1,287 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £865 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,839, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Southend-on-Sea
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £340,000 median sold price, £1,287 a month is £15,444 a year, a gross yield of 4.5%: 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 SS0 9 is
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.

Moving up a bedroom in SS: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SS area, 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £368,000 | £505,000 (+37%) | £699,995 (+39%) | £925,000 (+32%) |
