Across 40 registered 2026 sales, the typical (median) UB8 2 home went for £477,500. The mean is £437,000, beneath it, usually the sign of a batch of very cheap recorded transfers pulling the average lower.

In cash terms the typical UB8 2 home went from £64,000 in 1995 to £477,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 243%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2016; the current median sits about 9% below that. Someone who bought at the 2016 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the UB8 2 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 1999 (+28.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2023 (−14.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

The year-by-year sales count

Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.

UB8 2 recorded 40 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 267 sales a year before the financial crisis and 103 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.

The shape of the UB8 2 market

This is a thin market: 40 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.

What tenants pay around UB8 2

The local authority for UB8 2 is Hillingdon, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,557 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £1,241 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,616, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Set against the £477,500 median sold price, £1,557 a month is £18,684 a year, a gross yield of 3.9%: 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.

46% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.

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.

The price of an extra bedroom in UB

What homes of each size actually sold for across the UB area, from the Land Registry record. 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.
