In cash terms the typical WV13 2 home went from £38,000 in 1995 to £174,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 111%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2004, and today's median remains roughly 28% under it: a 2004 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the WV13 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 2004 (+64.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2006 (−16.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −10.8% | −12.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.7% | −1.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.6% | +1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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 19 WV13 2 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 150 sales a year before the financial crisis and 51 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.
What homes rent for around WV13 2
WV13 2 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.
Set against the £174,000 median sold price, £908 a month is £10,896 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: 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.
What kind of market WV13 2 is
Only 19 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes WV13 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the WV13 district median, WV13 2 sits 8% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

The price of an extra bedroom in WV
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the WV area. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £265,000 | £365,000 (+38%) | £550,000 (+51%) | £820,000 (+49%) |
