How much did my neighbour's house sell for?
Every sale in England and Wales is on the public record. Here's how to find what a specific home sold for — and what the figure really tells you.
It’s one of the most common questions in property — and the answer is genuinely public. When a home is sold and the transfer is registered, the price becomes part of HM Land Registry’s Price Paid Data. That includes the house down the road.
How to find it
Search the street or postcode on our explore page. Each street page lists the recorded sales, with the date, price and property type. If a home has sold more than once, you can see how its price changed between sales.
What the number means — and doesn’t
The figure is what the property actually soldfor, not what it was listed at. It doesn’t tell you the condition, whether it was a quick sale, or what’s changed since. And a price from 2015 tells you far less than it seems until you view it in today’s money— a £250,000 sale back then is worth well over £300,000 now, so a “higher” recent price nearby may be no gain at all in real terms.
Used well, the sold-price record is the most honest benchmark there is for what homes on a street are really worth.
