How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-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 |

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 ME13 8, over the last five years (1,126 sales):
- What sells: 36% terraced, 24% detached, 21% semi-detached, 15% flats, 4% other.
- 19% sold leasehold, and 16% were new builds.
- 215 sales in the last twelve months, against 482 in the same twelve months five years ago.
