In cash terms the typical YO11 2 home went from £40,000 in 1995 to £138,000 in 2026, roughly 3.5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 59%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2005; the current median sits about 35% below that. Someone who bought at the 2005 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the YO11 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 2003 (+31.5% on the year before); the weakest, 1998 (−11.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

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 57 YO11 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 317 sales a year before the financial crisis and 166 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.

How YO11 2 trades

Only 57 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes YO11 2 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within YO11, this sector trades 19% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What homes rent for around YO11 2

The local authority for YO11 2 is North Yorkshire, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £833 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £582 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,333, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Against the £138,000 median purchase price, a rent of £833 a month (£9,996 a year) works out at a 7.2% 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.

17% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.

"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

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.

Bedroom by bedroom: YO prices by size

Real sold prices by size across the YO area, straight 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.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

The risers and the fallers

The spread across the YO area is the point: the same five years treated these districts very differently.
