In cash terms the typical TR13 9 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £297,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 173%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 32% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TR13 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 (+40.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−15.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What TR13 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −15.1% | −17.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −2.5% | −7.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.2% | −1.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.3% |
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.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 35 TR13 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 124 sales a year before the financial crisis and 77 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 tenants pay around TR13 9
TR13 9 falls under Cornwall, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,003 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £691 a month here against £1,510 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Cornwall
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £297,000 median sold price, £1,003 a month is £12,036 a year, a gross yield of 4.1%: 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 TR13 9 is
Only 35 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TR13 9 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. Within TR13, this sector trades 8% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Bedroom by bedroom: TR prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the TR 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.
