How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Howards Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector SS9 3 | £400,000 | £425,000 -6% since | £291,250 +37% since | £188,750 +112% since | £185,000 +116% 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 SS9 3, over the last five years (863 sales):
- What sells: 40% semi-detached, 23% detached, 19% flats, 15% terraced, 3% other.
- 21% sold leasehold, and 1% were new builds.
- 140 sales in the last twelve months, against 260 in the same twelve months five years ago.
