SY18 sold prices: where the market stands
In the SY18 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £194,800, from 18 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £237,500, sitting well clear of it: the mark of a market where a small number of costly homes drag the average upwards.
What a square metre costs in SY18
By floor space, homes in SY18 have sold for about £2,270 per square metre on average over the last five years: the like-for-like measure that lets you compare a small flat with a large house, from the Energy Performance Certificate floor areas behind each sale.
For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so SY18 trades 32% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical SY18 home went from £44,200 in 1995 to £194,800 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 103%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 27% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the SY18 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 (+54.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−17.2%). 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. In 2016, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £210,000 against £77,500 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.6% | −4.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.5% | −6.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
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.
Month by month, five years back
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
Over the last twelve months of data, 45 sales completed in SY18. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 71 sales a year before the financial crisis and 46 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.
The rental side of SY18
SY18 falls under Powys, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £620 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £461 a month here against £951 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Powys
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£620 a month is £7,440 a year, which against the £194,800 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.8%. 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.
How SY18 trades
Only 45 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes SY18 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Among the 25 measurable districts of its area, SY18 ranks 24 by median price: towards the affordable end.
SY18 (Llangurig): the questions that come up
Is SY18 (Llangurig) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in SY18 (Llangurig)?
Are property prices falling in SY18 (Llangurig)?
Will SY18 prices rise from here?
Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is down 7% over five years in cash but down 27% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
On the market in SY18 today
Everything above is what homes in SY18 sold for. Turning to what is actually available: 5 homes on the market right now, from 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 57% above the SY18 median sold price.
20% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
What another bedroom costs in SY
What homes of each size actually sold for across the SY area, 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 | — | £257,700 | £355,000 (+38%) | £522,750 (+47%) | £680,000 (+30%) |
| Semi-detached | £187,500 | £220,000 (+17%) | £257,000 (+17%) | £347,500 (+35%) | £440,000 (+27%) |
| Terraced | £155,000 | £183,750 (+19%) | £215,000 (+17%) | £275,500 (+28%) | £385,000 (+40%) |
| Flat | £124,000 | £176,500 (+42%) | £280,000 (+59%) | — | — |
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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
