Council tax

What council tax costs in CO5

Band D · Braintree · 2026-27

£2,280

a year — the benchmark band every English authority is compared on.

Annual council tax charge for each band in Braintree, 2026-27
Band	1991 value	A year
A	up to £40,000	£1,520
B	£40,001–£52,000	£1,774
C	£52,001–£68,000	£2,027
D	£68,001–£88,000	£2,280
E	£88,001–£120,000	£2,787
F	£120,001–£160,000	£3,294
G	£160,001–£320,000	£3,801
H	over £320,000	£4,561

These are Braintree's charges for 2026-27, the authority CO5 falls in — not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Deprivation (IMD)

Area profile for CO5

Across the 12 sampled CO5 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 3 to decile 8, with a median of decile 7 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

1 · most deprived10 · least deprived

CO5 7JD, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 7 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 CO5 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in CO5 that have recorded sales and 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home.

Two sources, one table

What it costs to run a home in CO5, band by band

Braintree's council tax for 2026-27 set against the CO5 median sold price of £375,000 across 250 recorded sales — the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

H	over £320,000	£4,561	£380	1.22%

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the CO5 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.

Questions, answered

The CO5 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CO5?

The median sold price in CO5, Braintree was £375,000 across 250 recorded sales between 17 Dec 2025 and 17 Aug 2026. Most sales fell between £204,500 and £635,000. That is the median of real HM Land Registry transactions, not an estimate or a valuation.

How much is council tax in CO5?

CO5 is billed by Braintree, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,280 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.

Is CO5 a deprived area?

On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 CO5 postcodes we sampled run from decile 3 to decile 8, with a median of decile 7 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 CO5 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.

Can I see what an individual address in CO5 sold for?

Yes — this page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 240 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CO5, 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.

How up to date are the CO5 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.

Does CO5 cover my exact street?

CO5 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.
