Market Overview: LS16
Turnover in LS16 has been high, with 262 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 — semi-detached houses led with 44% but the mix is diverse, while flats accounted for 17% and detached houses accounted for 27%.
The twelve-month trend is softer than it was: the median in the second half of the window was 8.8% below the first-half median. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
For buyers and sellers in LS16 5AB, 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 3.3%, based on ONS regional rents.
