Market Overview: DL16
With 195 recorded transactions in twelve months, DL16 is one of the more liquid postcodes in the sample — individual outliers have less pull on the median figure than they would elsewhere. Individual sales ranged from £32k to £805k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — terraced houses led with 41% but the mix is diverse, while detached houses accounted for 23% and semi-detached houses accounted for 32%.
Prices have been essentially flat across the twelve-month window, moving by under 6% in either direction. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
Liquidity in DL16 6AA is healthy: the high sale count makes it easier to benchmark a specific property against genuinely recent comparables rather than extrapolating from older deals. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 7.8%, based on ONS regional rents.
