Market Overview: B49
B49 has a twelve-month median sale price of £290k across 14 Land Registry transactions. Individual sales ranged from £72k to £695k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — detached houses led with 29% but the mix is diverse, while terraced houses accounted for 29% and flats accounted for 21%.
The B49 5AB 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 3.7%, based on ONS regional rents.
