In cash terms the typical YO31 0 home went from £52,200 in 1995 to £321,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 183%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2018; the current median sits about 10% below that. Someone who bought at the 2018 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the YO31 0 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 2002 (+30.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−15.9%). 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) | +7.2% | +4.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.7% |
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.
Sales activity in YO31 0
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 20 sales completed in YO31 0. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 115 sales a year before the financial crisis and 79 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.
The rental side of YO31 0
For renting purposes YO31 0 sits in York. The ONS average private rent there is £1,182 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £863 a month here against £1,725 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, York
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,182 a month is £14,184 a year, which against the £321,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.4%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
What kind of market YO31 0 is
Only 20 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes YO31 0 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Against the YO31 district median, YO31 0 sits 11% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

Moving up a bedroom in YO: the cost
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.
