Market Overview: DH2
Turnover in DH2 has been high, with 240 residential sales logged by HM Land Registry in the last twelve months — enough volume that the median figure is reasonably representative.
No single property type dominates — terraced houses led with 41% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 33% and detached houses accounted for 18%.
The twelve-month trend is softer than it was: the median in the second half of the window was 10.9% below the first-half median. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
For buyers and sellers in DH2 1AE, the wide dispersion means averages are a weak guide — comparable sales matched on property type, floor area and condition will produce a far tighter estimate. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 7.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
