Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on DT7: a quiet market, so take your time
DT7 has seen just 250 sales since April 2024, with a median below last year’s, so buyers have time on their side, though a few sales can mislead either way.
If you are selling, with detached homes at £660,000 and flats at £277,500, the £175,000 to £945,500 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check; a quick cash sale buys certainty at a cost, usually about 70–85% of market value as a rough guide, not a quote, so weigh it carefully.
Sell houseIf you are buying, DT7 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, though prices have eased, so there may be room to negotiate; just remember one year of falls is not a forecast.
Before an offer goes in on any DT7 home, look at what has been applied for nearby (543 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,765 a year), and leave the title to your conveyancer.
Where the numbers are this loose, the free DT7 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English
What the Dorset (DT7) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £660,000 against £277,500 for flats: about 2.4 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £175,000 and £945,500, so the median says little about any one home.
- This is a quiet district: only about 9 recorded sales a month.
Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled DT7 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 4 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.
DT7 3SX, 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 DT7 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in DT7: 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 DT7, band by band
Dorset's council tax for 2026-27 set against the DT7 median sold price of £429,193 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the DT7 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.
