Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

In cash terms the typical WS3 3 home went from £62,800 in 1995 to £202,500 in 2026, roughly 3.2 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 48%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

Year-on-year change in the WS3 3 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 2017 (+26.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−16.7%). 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 turnover behind the prices

Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.

WS3 3 recorded 56 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 193 sales a year before the financial crisis and 123 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.

The shape of the WS3 3 market

This is a thin market: 56 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.

The rental side of WS3 3

The local authority for WS3 3 is Walsall, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £908 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £642 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,305, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £202,500 median purchase price, a rent of £908 a month (£10,896 a year) works out at a 5.4% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in WS

The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the WS 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.
