Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on SS12: steady sales, so price from the evidence

Roughly 23 homes a month change hands in SS12, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

If you are thinking of selling, SS12 buyers have mostly paid between £252,250 and £551,000, so start from the nearest comparable sale and work outwards; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

If you are looking to buy, SS12 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, so a premium over the average needs a reason you can see in the sold homes of the same type.

On any SS12 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (421 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,327 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.

Next step: the free SS12 OfferCheck, which sets flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools next to these prices, with every source named.

In plain English

What the Basildon (SS12) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £495,000 against £193,750 for flats: about 2.6 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Nearly all of these sales (92%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
  • This is an active district: about 23 recorded sales a month.

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 SS12 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in SS12: 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.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the SS12 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 SS12 report: your questions

What is the average house price in SS12?
The typical (median) sold price in SS12 is £372,500, from 250 recorded sales between 26 September 2025 and 17 August 2026. Most sales fell between £252,250 and £551,000. 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 SS12?
Typical sold prices by type in SS12: semi-detached homes £377,500 (107 sales), detached homes £495,000 (65 sales), terraced homes £325,000 (53 sales), flats £193,750 (20 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in SS12?
SS12 is billed by Basildon, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,327 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 SS12?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the SS12 district centre, the nearest being Oakfield Primary School (last Ofsted grade: Good). 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 SS12 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 SS12 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 SS12 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 3 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. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like SS12 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near SS12?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 421 applications within 500 m of the SS12 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 SS12 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 240 distinct addresses in the records we hold for SS12, 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 SS12 cover my exact street?
SS12 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.
