Summary

Over the last twelve months the local median is down 10.7%, behind Wales (+2.6% on the index), comparing 54 sales with 46, so a handful of homes can swing it.

Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on SY17: few sales, so go in with your eyes open
At around 4 sales a month, SY17 is quiet, and prices have drifted down, so sellers should plan for a longer sale and buyers can afford to be patient.
When selling here, £226,500 is only the middle of a market that runs from £125,000 to £460,500, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; with so little to compare, give yourself extra time; a quick cash sale buys certainty at a cost, usually about 70–85% of market value as a rough guide, not a quote, so weigh it carefully.
Sell houseFor buyers, on price, SY17 is close to the Wales average, and prices have eased, so you can reasonably ask for the evidence behind an asking price.
Before you offer in SY17, check long-term flood risk, planning applications nearby and the energy rating (EPC), and ask your conveyancer about the title.
For what the averages cannot tell you, the free SY17 OfferCheck brings flood, crime, planning and council tax together.

In plain English
What the Powys (SY17) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £329,500 against £153,500 for terraced homes: about 2.1 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 £460,500, so the median says little about any one home.
- Nearly all of these sales (98%) 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 4 recorded sales a month.

Deprivation (IMD)
Area profile for SY17
The English Indices of Deprivation cover England only, so there is no decile to show for a Wales district. The equivalent measure is the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (Welsh Government), which is published on a different geography and a different scale. The two are not interchangeable, so we do not substitute one for the other.
