Market Overview: OL8
Land Registry records 30 residential transactions in OL8 across the last twelve months — a middle-of-the-road volume that supports broad price indications without pinning a specific street. Individual sales ranged from £65k to £352k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
Terraced houses were the most common transaction type, representing 53% of sales, while semi-detached houses accounted for 27%.
The OL8 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 6.0%, based on ONS regional rents.
