Market Overview: B26
Activity in B26 over the last twelve months ran to 56 residential sales, giving a workable sample size for median-level analysis. Individual sales ranged from £69k to £450k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — semi-detached houses led with 45% but the mix is diverse, while terraced houses accounted for 39%.
The twelve-month trend is upward: comparing the first half of the window with the second, the median shifted by roughly +7.3%. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
The B26 1AA dataset is a reasonable baseline, but decisions at the individual-property level should still lean on matched comparables rather than the area median alone. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 5.4%, based on ONS regional rents.
