Market Overview: WV2
With 74 recorded transactions in twelve months, WV2 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 £70k to £2.63m, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
No single property type dominates — terraced houses led with 42% but the mix is diverse, while semi-detached houses accounted for 35%.
The twelve-month trend is upward: comparing the first half of the window with the second, the median shifted by roughly +16.1%. Monthly volume was fairly consistent, giving the trend line a reliable shape.
Liquidity in WV2 1AA 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 12.0%, based on ONS regional rents.
