Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on B47: a quiet market, so take your time

B47 has seen just 250 sales since October 2024, which is too few for firm conclusions, so we would lean on individual sold homes rather than any average.

If you are thinking of selling, the £242,700 to £565,500 range is where most B47 sales landed, so start from the nearest comparable sale and work outwards; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check; if certainty matters more than price, a quick cash sale usually means accepting about 70–85% of market value (a rough guide, not a quote).

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, B47 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

Our checklist before an offer: what has been applied for nearby (303 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,363 a year), plus the title, which your conveyancer should review.

With averages this broad, the free B47 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English

What the Birmingham (B47) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £488,875 against £193,750 for flats: about 2.5 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • This is a quiet district: only about 12 recorded sales a month.

Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The B47 report: your questions

What is the average house price in B47?
The typical (median) sold price in B47 is £374,000, from 250 recorded sales between 25 October 2024 and 30 July 2026. Most sales fell between £242,700 and £565,500. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in B47?
Typical sold prices by type in B47: semi-detached homes £363,750 (96 sales), detached homes £488,875 (86 sales), terraced homes £292,500 (54 sales), flats £193,750 (8 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in B47?
B47 is billed by Birmingham, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,363 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near B47?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the B47 district centre, the nearest being Woodrush High School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the B47 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is B47 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 B47 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 4 to decile 10, with a median of decile 8 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like B47 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near B47?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 303 applications within 500 m of the B47 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in B47 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 240 distinct addresses in the records we hold for B47, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does B47 cover my exact street?
B47 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
