TQ5 8 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside TQ5 (Brixham). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical TQ5 8 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £275,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 181%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 24% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the TQ5 8 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 (+35.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−14.4%). 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) | −5.2% | −7.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.4% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.6% | −0.2% |
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.
Sales activity in TQ5 8
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.
TQ5 8 recorded 41 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 168 sales a year before the financial crisis and 72 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.
Rents around TQ5 8
For renting purposes TQ5 8 sits in Torbay. The ONS average private rent there is £908 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £611 a month here against £1,279 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Torbay
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£908 a month is £10,896 a year, which against the £275,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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.
The shape of the TQ5 8 market
Only 41 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TQ5 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

Bedroom by bedroom: TQ prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TQ area. 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 | — | £325,000 | £435,000 (+34%) | £660,000 (+52%) | £930,000 (+41%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
