How this area has changed
Typical prices for detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forest Gate | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £213,497 |
| Postcode sector NE12 9 | £305,000 | £270,000 +13% since | £262,747 +16% since | Not enough sales | £209,995 +45% 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 NE12 9, over the last five years (763 sales):
- What sells: 38% semi-detached, 23% terraced, 18% flats, 17% detached, 4% other.
- 25% sold leasehold, and 2% were new builds.
- 118 sales in the last twelve months, against 181 in the same twelve months five years ago.
