Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on HR9: steady sales, so price from the evidence
250 sales since October 2025 make HR9 a steady market, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.
If you are selling, with detached homes at £425,000 and flats at £141,250, the £150,000 to £671,000 spread is really several markets, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; roughly 24 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.
Sell houseIf you are buying, typical prices in HR9 sit above the UK average, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.
On any HR9 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (730 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,443 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.
The sold prices leave a lot open; the free HR9 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English
What the Forest of Dean (HR9) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £425,000 against £141,250 for flats: about 3.0 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £150,000 and £671,000, so the median says little about any one home.
- This is an active district: about 24 recorded sales a month.

These are Forest of Dean's charges for 2026-27, the authority HR9 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.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled HR9 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 5 to decile 10, with a median of decile 6 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
HR9 6PF, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 6 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 HR9 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in HR9: 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 HR9, band by band
Forest of Dean's council tax for 2026-27 set against the HR9 median sold price of £336,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearForest of Dean | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £336,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,629 | £136 | 0.48% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,900 | £158 | 0.57% |
| C | £52,001–£68,000 | £2,172 | £181 | 0.65% |

| H | over £320,000 | £4,887 | £407 | 1.45% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the HR9 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.
