Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on HR5: a quiet market, so take your time
At around 6 sales a month, HR5 is quiet, at a lower median than a year ago, so the pressure is on sellers and buyers can take their time.
If you are selling, most HR5 sales sit between £125,000 and £551,000, which makes £259,825 a blunt instrument, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; with so few sales, allow extra time and a local agent’s view; 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 houseIf you are buying, typical prices in HR5 sit close to the UK average, with prices easing, so it is fair to ask why an asking price sits above recent sales.
On any HR5 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (26 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and the energy rating (EPC), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.
The sold prices leave a lot open; the free HR5 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English
What the Herefordshire, County of (HR5) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £352,500 against £181,250 for terraced homes: about 1.9 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £125,000 and £551,000, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (93%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.
- This is a quiet district: only about 6 recorded sales a month.
