Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Vesey Close, Sutton Coldfield is £232,500 in 2023; the lowest is £50,875 in 1998. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £65,551 to £196,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £142,195, so the real change over the whole record is +41.2% — about +1.20% 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: +37.9% in cash against -11.8% 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.

Ownership and new build in Vesey Close, Sutton Coldfield

156 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid

Freehold00.0%
New build10.6%£162,500
Existing home15599.4%£143,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +13.6%. 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 1 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 Birmingham at £1,090 a month as of Jun 2026 — £823 for a one-bedroom home and £1,124 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £144,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.08% 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 B74, 42 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 14 violent, 5 burglary, 7 vehicle-related and 3 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 4.0 times quieter.

Against the 1,144,919 residents the 2021 census counted in Birmingham, that is 0.04 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.
