About this data

Figures cover standard sales of flats and houses at full market value. Repossessions, buy-to-let and company purchases, and non-residential property are left out. Sales take weeks or months to be registered, and flats register faster than houses, so the newest months are incomplete and skew cheap. The headline figures therefore stop at April 2026, although sales are registered up to 21 Aug 2026.

Streets are shown without house or flat numbers. Last updated 23 Oct 2026.
