How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flake Lane | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector OL2 5 | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £126,622 |
| Oldham | £145,000 | £120,000 +21% since | £107,000 +36% since | £88,995 +63% since | £124,997 +16% 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 OL2 5, over the last five years (723 sales):
- What sells: 37% terraced, 35% semi-detached, 14% detached, 8% flats, 6% other.
- 77% sold leasehold.
- 122 sales in the last twelve months, against 184 in the same twelve months five years ago.
