Your postcode.
The property facts.

A transparent evidence platform for England & Wales property transactions: recorded sold prices, market activity, property mix and reproducible postcode intelligence.

Important: These are historic registered transactions, not present-day property valuations or a house-price index. Recent transfers can be incomplete and records can be revised. Understand the limitations.

EXPLORE REAL POSTCODE EVIDENCE

A national picture. Local detail.

The panels below load recorded sales directly from the same verified dataset as the postcode explorer. No sample numbers are fabricated.

How we verify the data ↗
Postcode districts availableChecking…England and Wales, subject to source coverage
Official reference monthChecking…HM Land Registry corrected PPD records
Source-year windowChecking…Not yet complete back to 1995

Only completed, registered standard Category A transactions from the declared source-year window. Some price statistics are withheld where fewer than ten eligible sales exist. Areas above are postcode districts, not administrative boundaries.

01 / OBSERVE

Completed sales, not asking prices

Registered transactions show what changed hands, not what was advertised.

02 / INTERPRET

Price, volume and property mix

Separate market activity from the mix of homes sold so a median is never mistaken for a valuation index.

03 / VERIFY

Evidence you can trace

Release IDs, source months, validation rules, sample thresholds and provenance are part of the product.

OPEN MAPS · HISTORICAL CHANGE

From farmland to neighbourhood.

Start with a current postcode map and inspect independently dated land-cover, historic map and planning evidence. Location alone is never proof of a legal change of use.

OFFICIAL BENCHMARKS · CLEARLY SEPARATE FROM TRANSACTION MEDIANS

Go beyond the sold-price headline.

Two independent official research series help explain broader context. These sources are published at different geographical levels and are not estimates for an individual postcode district.

01 / QUALITY-ADJUSTED PRICE MOVEMENT

UK House Price Index

The official HPI uses mix-adjustment to better distinguish market movements from changes in the properties being sold. Its historic England and Wales series reaches back to 1995.

Contextual source only · a verified postcode-to-local-authority crosswalk is required before area comparison

02 / HOUSE PRICE TO EARNINGS

ONS housing affordability

Official 2025 local-authority statistics compare median property prices with gross annual earnings. Residence-based and workplace-based earnings must not be conflated.

The source links above lead to the publishers' own statistics, not SCC-computed local values. Future integrated comparisons will be added only after independent checks of the geography, dates, definitions and reuse permissions.

METHOD & LIMITATIONS

Good information needs context.

Our figures describe completed sales registered with HM Land Registry in England and Wales, not every home or its present value. A change in the median sold price can reflect a different mix of properties sold, rather than a like-for-like increase in house values.

We omit the two most recent transfer months from headline comparisons because registrations arrive late. The remaining data can still be revised. Where samples are small, percentage changes are not shown. The current build uses standard category A transactions and a declared source-year window.

Read the official HM Land Registry methodology ↗. The current pilot uses yearly source files from 2023 onwards; historical coverage is not yet complete back to 1995. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by HM Land Registry.
