A part-year and a small mix shift (say, more flats sold this year) can move a median without any change in what homes are worth, so treat year-to-year differences with care.

New builds and leasehold

0% of CO1 sales were new builds and 31% were leasehold. Most sales here were freehold, which usually means houses.

About these figures. Every standard (category A) residential sale HM Land Registry recorded in CO1 from January 2025 to September 2026. Repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio sales and other non-standard transfers are excluded. A district median is not a valuation of any home. How Boroughly sources data.
