Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on WV9: few sales, so go in with your eyes open

WV9 sees just 7 sales a month, at a lower median than a year ago, so the pressure is on sellers and buyers can take their time.

For sellers, most sales in WV9 fell between £136,710 and £358,400, so check where your home would sit among the recent sales before choosing a number; with so few sales, allow extra time and a local agent’s view; if certainty matters more than price, a quick cash sale usually means accepting about 70–85% of market value (a rough guide, not a quote).

Sell house

When buying here, on price, WV9 is below the UK average, with prices slipping, so negotiate, but ask what lies behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.

Do your own homework first: planning history nearby (79 applications on record within 500 m), whether the home is at risk of flooding and council tax (Band D is £2,314 a year), then hand the title to your conveyancer.

Averages only go so far, so the free WV9 OfferCheck sets flood, crime, planning and council tax beside the sold prices.

In plain English

What the South Staffordshire (WV9) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £322,000 against £93,500 for flats: about 3.4 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • This is a quiet district: only about 7 recorded sales a month.

Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

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 WV9 report: your questions

What is the average house price in WV9?
The typical (median) sold price in WV9 is £240,000, from 250 recorded sales between 10 October 2023 and 24 August 2026. Most sales fell between £136,710 and £358,400. That is below 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.
Are house prices going up in WV9?
The local median is down 4.6% over the last twelve months, comparing 71 sales with 104 in the twelve months before. A past trend is not a forecast.
How many homes sold in WV9 last year?
71 sales were recorded in the most recent twelve months we can measure, against 104 in the twelve months before. Recent sales can take weeks to reach the register, so the latest months may rise a little.
What does each type of home cost in WV9?
Typical sold prices by type in WV9: semi-detached homes £221,000 (98 sales), detached homes £322,000 (85 sales), terraced homes £185,250 (31 sales), flats £93,500 (24 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in WV9?
WV9 is billed by South Staffordshire, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,314 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 WV9?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the WV9 district centre, the nearest being School of Coding AEP Limited. 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 WV9 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 WV9 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 WV9 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 2 to decile 9, 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 WV9 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near WV9?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 79 applications within 500 m of the WV9 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.
