In cash terms the typical SS15 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £330,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 223%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SS15 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 2015 (+26.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−5.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of terraced homes dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £485,000 against £209,800 for a flat, 2.3 times the price.

Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −3.5% | −5.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.1% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +2.5% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +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.
How many homes change hands in SS15
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 last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 337 SS15 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 629 sales a year before the financial crisis and 348 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around SS15
SS15 falls under Basildon, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,410 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £972 a month for a typical one-bed to £2,104 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Basildon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,410 a month is £16,920 a year, which against the £330,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 5.1%. 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.

What is for sale in SS15 right now
Everything above is what homes in SS15 sold for. The live side of the market holds 6 homes at the moment, listed by 3 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 36% below the SS15 median sold price.
At the pace of the last twelve months' registered sales (337 in SS15), the 6 homes listed here amount to about a week of supply. Not every agent publishes to HomesIndex, so the true figure is higher. That is a thin shelf: buyers here are choosing from little, and a well priced home is unlikely to wait long.
0% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.

Month by month: when SS15 sells
Across the 2,135 sales completed in SS15 from 2021 to 2025, March was the busiest month for completions (11.1% of the total) and January the quietest (6.7%). The gap between the two is wide enough to plan around: completion follows the agreed sale by weeks, so the busiest month for completions points to deals done earlier, and a seller wanting several bidders should list ahead of it.
Sales by month, 2021 to 2025

The price of an extra bedroom in SS
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SS area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £310,000 | £395,000 (+27%) | £460,000 (+16%) | £570,000 (+24%) | £720,000 (+26%) |
| Semi-detached | £315,000 | £350,000 (+11%) | £380,000 (+9%) | £435,000 (+14%) | £525,000 (+21%) |
| Terraced | £268,000 | £315,000 (+18%) | £328,000 (+4%) | £386,750 (+18%) | £443,000 (+15%) |
| Flat | £176,000 | £230,000 (+31%) | £270,000 (+17%) | £350,000 (+30%) | £420,000 (+20%) |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
