How this area has changed
Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forest Edge | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector IG9 5 | £1,052,500 | £880,000 +20% since | £885,000 +19% since | £650,000 +62% since | £437,500 +141% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in IG9 5, over the last five years (634 sales):
- What sells: 38% flats, 21% detached, 19% semi-detached, 16% terraced, 5% other.
- 40% sold leasehold.
- 114 sales in the last twelve months, against 227 in the same twelve months five years ago.
