In cash terms the typical WS10 9 home went from £36,000 in 1995 to £214,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 173%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 6% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the WS10 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 2021 (+29.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−10.5%). 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) | −2.7% | −5.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.1% | −0.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.4% | +2.9% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The register shows 29 WS10 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 208 sales a year before the financial crisis and 94 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.
Rents around WS10 9
WS10 9 falls under Sandwell, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £940 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £672 a month here against £1,388 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Sandwell
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £214,000 median sold price, £940 a month is £11,280 a year, a gross yield of 5.3%: 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.
Reading the WS10 9 market
This is a thin market: 29 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. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

Bedroom by bedroom: WS prices by size
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the WS area. 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 | — | £275,000 | £370,000 (+35%) | £572,400 (+55%) | £821,400 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £196,000 | £215,000 (+10%) | £255,000 (+19%) | £340,000 (+33%) | £400,000 (+18%) |
| Terraced | £175,000 | £183,250 (+5%) | £212,500 (+16%) | £291,500 (+37%) | — |
| Flat | £115,000 | £151,000 (+31%) | £247,500 (+64%) | — | — |
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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
