Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on WV16: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead
WV16 is neither busy nor quiet, at about 17 sales a month, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.
For sellers, detached homes typically sold for £399,950 against £135,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £135,000 to £540,750, so the closest sold homes of your type say much more than the middle; roughly 17 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.
Sell houseWhen buying here, WV16 sits close to the UK average for typical prices, so the sold homes of your type are the yardstick to hold an asking price to.
Before you offer in WV16, check flood risk over the long term, council tax (Band D is £2,528 a year) and planning applications nearby, and ask your conveyancer about the title.
The sold prices leave a lot open; the free WV16 OfferCheck closes some of the gap with flood, crime, planning and council tax.

In plain English
What the Shropshire (WV16) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £399,950 against £135,000 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 £135,000 and £540,750, so the median says little about any one home.
- This is an active district: about 17 recorded sales a month.

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.

Across the 12 sampled WV16 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 4 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.
WV16 4EQ, 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 WV16 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in WV16: 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 WV16, band by band
Shropshire's council tax for 2026-27 set against the WV16 median sold price of £254,500 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearShropshire | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £254,500 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,685 | £140 | 0.66% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £1,966 | £164 | 0.77% |

| H | over £320,000 | £5,056 | £421 | 1.99% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the WV16 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.
