In cash terms the typical YO42 4 home went from £78,200 in 1995 to £386,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 127%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2008. The market now sits about 24% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the YO42 4 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 2001 (+47.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−23.8%). 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) | +4.3% | +1.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.2% | −4.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.0% | +0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
YO42 4 recorded 16 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 81 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 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 YO42 4 trades
This is a thin market: 16 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 YO42, this sector trades 35% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
What tenants pay around YO42 4
For renting purposes YO42 4 sits in East Riding of Yorkshire. The ONS average private rent there is £721 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £500 a month here against £1,160 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, East Riding of Yorkshire
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £386,000 median sold price, £721 a month is £8,652 a year, a gross yield of 2.2%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in YO: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the YO area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £270,746 | £362,000 (+34%) | £546,000 (+51%) | £702,500 (+29%) |

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. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
