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
Longbridge Road	–	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	£190,495	Not enough sales
Postcode sector RM8 2	£227,000	Not enough sales	£247,500 -8% since	£173,500 +31% since	Not enough sales

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.

Sector RM8 2 Barking and Dagenham Typical price each year, flats. A gap is a year with too few sales.
