Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on PL5: steady sales, so price from the evidence
PL5 sees about 40 sales a month, which is enough to price from, though not enough history for us to call a clear twelve-month direction.
If you are thinking of selling, PL5 sales mostly ran from £132,700 to £290,250, so start from the nearest comparable sale and work outwards; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.
Sell houseIf you are looking to buy, on price, PL5 is well below the UK average, so ask what is behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.
On any PL5 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (350 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,442 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.
To see this next to flood, crime, planning and council tax, run the free PL5 OfferCheck; the Report explains what matters for your home.

Median across 12 sampled postcodes; 1 is the most deprived 10% of England, 10 the least.
Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled PL5 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 1 to decile 6, with a median of decile 2 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
PL5 4HB, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 2 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 PL5 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in PL5: 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
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in PL5, band by band
Plymouth's council tax for 2026-27 set against the PL5 median sold price of £195,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearPlymouth | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £195,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,628 | £136 | 0.83% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,899 | £158 | 0.97% |
| C | £52,001–£68,000 | £2,171 | £181 | 1.11% |
| D | £68,001–£88,000 | £2,442 | £204 | 1.25% |
| E | £88,001–£120,000 | £2,984 | £249 | 1.53% |
| F | £120,001–£160,000 | £3,527 | £294 | 1.81% |
| G | £160,001–£320,000 | £4,070 | £339 | 2.09% |
| H | over £320,000 | £4,884 | £407 | 2.50% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the PL5 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.
