| 1996 | £43,000 | £90,685 | 292 |
| 1995 | £43,900 | £95,432 | 287 |
In cash terms the typical SS3 9 home went from £43,900 in 1995 to £320,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 235%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2021; the current median sits about 21% below that. Someone who bought at the 2021 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the SS3 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 2002 (+24.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−6.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | 0.0% | −4.6% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.7% | −0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.5% | +0.7% |
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 SS3 9
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
SS3 9 recorded 75 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 344 sales a year before the financial crisis and 147 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.
Rents around SS3 9
The local authority for SS3 9 is Southend-on-Sea, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,287 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £865 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,839 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Southend-on-Sea
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £320,000 median sold price, £1,287 a month is £15,444 a year, a gross yield of 4.8%: 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 another bedroom costs in SS
Real sold prices by size across the SS 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.
