In cash terms the typical UB1 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £525,000 in 2026, roughly 9 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 309%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 3% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the UB1 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 2022 (+28.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2021 (−13.5%). 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, 53% of the typed total. In 2001, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £178,000 against £82,800 for a flat, 2.1 times the price.

Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +11.7% | +9.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.8% | +2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.7% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +4.6% | +1.7% |
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 UB1
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 last five years, month by month
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 110 sales completed in UB1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 380 sales a year before the financial crisis and 135 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 UB1
The local authority for UB1 is Ealing, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £2,060 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £1,590 a month here against £3,217 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Ealing
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £525,000 median purchase price, a rent of £2,060 a month (£24,720 a year) works out at a 4.7% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the UB1 market
This is a thin market: 110 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. 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. UB1 sits 2 of 10 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.

Moving up a bedroom in UB: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the UB area, straight 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 | — | £540,000 | £745,000 (+38%) | £965,000 (+30%) | £1,290,000 (+34%) |
| Semi-detached | £363,750 | £495,000 (+36%) | £555,000 (+12%) | £662,500 (+19%) | — |
| Terraced | £380,000 | £465,000 (+22%) | £515,000 (+11%) | £595,000 (+16%) | — |
| Flat | £265,000 | £327,250 (+23%) | £435,000 (+33%) | — | — |
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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
