How Burns Close, Billericay prices moved

The chart tracks the median Burns Close, Billericay house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2009. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Burns Close, Billericay is £240,000 in 2007; the lowest is £119,500 in 1999. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £119,500 to £237,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £243,490, so the real change over the whole record is +60.3% — about +4.83% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +98.7% in cash against +60.3% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Burns Close, Billericay values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Burns Close, Billericay is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Burns Close, Billericay

87 of the sales on record are leasehold and 49 freehold — 64.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The median leasehold sale is £161,000 and the median freehold sale £240,000 — a gap of +49.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.1%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Basildon at £1,416 a month as of Jun 2026 — £977 for a one-bedroom home and £1,498 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £187,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.09% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of CM11, 55 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 16 violent, 2 burglary, 7 vehicle-related and 4 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.0 times quieter.

Against the 187,571 residents the 2021 census counted in Basildon, that is 0.29 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

How Burns Close, Billericay compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Burns Close, Billericay sits above that national figure — +18.7%.

Within Billericay the street ranks 413 of 503 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £250,000 (-25.2%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,989 per square metre, across 32 of the 136 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £82,000 to £420,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Burns Close, Billericay sits in Basildon, in the East of England.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Basildon at 9.7 times median local earnings of £37,539 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Burns Close, Billericay?

£2,989 per square metre, from the 32 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
