Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on RM6: steady sales, so price from the evidence

RM6 sees about 22 sales a month, and with no dependable year-on-year figure to hand, recent sold homes are a safer guide than any headline.

If you are selling, RM6 buyers have mostly paid between £230,000 and £560,500, so start from the nearest comparable sale and work outwards; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

If you are buying, typical prices in RM6 sit well above the UK average, so compare any asking price with sold homes of the same type before you commit.

On any RM6 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (1,689 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,199 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

Next step: the free RM6 OfferCheck, which sets flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools next to these prices, with every source named.

That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the RM6 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 RM6 report: your questions

What is the average house price in RM6?
The typical (median) sold price in RM6 is £435,000, from 250 recorded sales between 8 September 2025 and 17 August 2026. Most sales fell between £230,000 and £560,500. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in RM6?
Typical sold prices by type in RM6: terraced homes £470,000 (144 sales), flats £239,000 (52 sales), semi-detached homes £455,000 (37 sales), detached homes £490,000 (12 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in RM6?
RM6 is billed by Barking and Dagenham, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,199 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.
Which schools are near RM6?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the RM6 district centre, the nearest being St Bede's Catholic Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Outstanding). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the RM6 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.
Is RM6 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 RM6 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 7, with a median of decile 4 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 RM6 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near RM6?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 1689 applications within 500 m of the RM6 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in RM6 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 243 distinct addresses in the records we hold for RM6, 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.
Does RM6 cover my exact street?
RM6 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.
