Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on B71: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead
250 sales since August 2025 make B71 a steady market, so there is a fair body of evidence, but not enough of it for a trustworthy twelve-month trend.
When selling here, most sales in B71 fell between £120,000 and £305,700, so the real question is where in it your home sits; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.
Sell houseFor buyers, typical prices in B71 sit below the UK average, so find out why prices run lower here before deciding it is good value.
Before you offer in B71, check planning history nearby (398 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,244 a year), and ask your conveyancer about the title.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled B71 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 1 to decile 7, with a median of decile 3 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
B71 1EG, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 3 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so B71 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in B71: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

Cost to run

What it costs to run a home in B71, band by band
Sandwell's council tax for 2026-27 set against the B71 median sold price of £216,750 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearSandwell | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £216,750 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,496 | £125 | 0.69% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,746 | £146 | 0.81% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,489 | £374 | 2.07% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the B71 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. 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.
