Market Overview: PL1
With 218 recorded transactions in twelve months, PL1 is one of the more liquid postcodes in the sample — individual outliers have less pull on the median figure than they would elsewhere.
Flats were the most common transaction type, representing 61% of sales, while terraced houses accounted for 32%. A flats-heavy composition like this usually points to a city-centre or regeneration postcode where high-density apartment blocks have replaced or supplemented older stock.
The twelve-month trend is upward: comparing the first half of the window with the second, the median shifted by roughly +18.8%. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
For buyers and sellers in PL1 1AB, 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 6.4%, based on ONS regional rents.
