Market Overview: BL3
Activity in BL3 over the last twelve months ran to 25 residential sales, giving a workable sample size for median-level analysis. Individual sales ranged from £70k to £320k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — semi-detached houses led with 36% but the mix is diverse, while flats accounted for 16% and terraced houses accounted for 32%.
The BL3 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 5.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
