How Ascot Close, Oldbury prices moved

The chart tracks the median Ascot Close, Oldbury house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2019. 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 Ascot Close, Oldbury is £127,000 in 2019; the lowest is £37,000 in 1997. Across the full 23-year record the cash median has moved from £37,000 to £127,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £78,451, so the real change over the whole record is +111.7% — about +3.47% 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: +9.5% in cash against -17.6% 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.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Ascot Close, Oldbury

58 of the sales on record are leasehold and 53 freehold — 52.3% 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 £50,000 and the median freehold sale £117,000 — a gap of +134.0%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

Freehold5347.7%£117,000
New build10.9%£46,000
Existing home11099.1%£81,500
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -43.6%. 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 8 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.

Section 09

How Ascot Close, Oldbury compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Ascot Close, Oldbury sits below that national figure — -49.2%.

Within Oldbury the street ranks 411 of 500 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £110,000 (-27.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,667 per square metre, across 27 of the 111 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 £11,000 to £225,000. 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.
