Postcode Market Lookup
Type any UK postcode to see actual sold prices, volume, year-on-year change and the most recent transactions. All figures are taken from the open HM Land Registry Price Paid dataset, not from estimates or asking prices.
About this data
All figures come from the HM Land Registry Price Paid dataset, published under the Open Government Licence v3.0. This is the authoritative record of residential property transactions in England and Wales, sourced directly from completion data filed at the Land Registry. We bulk-load the full dataset (every transaction since 1995) and refresh it monthly with the official deltas.
Median vs average. The median (middle value when prices are sorted) is the more useful headline because property prices are skewed: a single £5m sale would distort the average for a postcode where most homes sold for £300k. We show both so you can compare.
Year-on-year change compares the median of sales in the last 12 months against the 12 months before that. For postcodes with few transactions this can swing widely as a single high or low sale changes the median. Use the volume figure as a confidence check.
What's not included. Scotland (covered by Registers of Scotland, separate dataset) and Northern Ireland. Commercial transactions and most below-market-value sales (e.g. transfers between family members, repossessions) are excluded by the Land Registry from the standard "A" category and flagged "B" if included.
Pair this with our Stamp Duty Calculator if you're budgeting for a purchase, or the Net Seller Proceeds Calculator if you're planning a sale.
Historical sold-price data is a backward-looking indicator. Current asking prices, market conditions and individual property features will all affect what a specific home is worth today. Use this as context for a valuation conversation, not as a replacement for one.
