In cash terms the typical WS9 9 home went from £66,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 3.9 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 78%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the WS9 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 (+50.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−18.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −11.3% | −13.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.4% | −4.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.1% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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.
How many homes change hands in WS9 9
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 32 sales completed in WS9 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 158 sales a year before the financial crisis and 83 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 WS9 9 market
This is a thin market: 32 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. Within WS9, this sector trades 14% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What tenants pay around WS9 9
WS9 9 falls under Walsall, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £908 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £642 a month here against £1,305 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Walsall
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £255,000 median purchase price, a rent of £908 a month (£10,896 a year) works out at a 4.3% 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
What homes of each size actually sold for across the WS area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| 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%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
