| Postcode sector NG17 7 | £250,000 | £240,000 +4% since | £171,000 +46% since | £124,500 +101% since | £131,975 +89% 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 NG17 7, over the last five years (649 sales):
- What sells: 52% semi-detached, 21% detached, 19% terraced, 7% other, 1% flats.
- 1% sold leasehold, and 3% were new builds.
- 111 sales in the last twelve months, against 162 in the same twelve months five years ago.
