What the numbers mean
Reading the Leeds market, from both sides.
Figures tell you what has happened. What they mean for one home, and one decision, depends on the details.
If you are selling
A flat market
Prices in Leeds have been broadly flat, within 0.8% of the previous 12 months. Without a rising market to lean on, the asking price has to be justified by the home itself and by what similar homes have actually sold for.
When sales complete
Completions in Leeds have peaked in March, August and July over the last four years. Sales usually take a few months to complete, so those peaks reflect offers agreed well before.
If you are buying
Steady prices
With prices in Leeds broadly flat on the year, there is less pressure to rush, and more reason to judge each home on recent comparable sales rather than on the asking price.

Leeds house prices: common questions.
What is the average house price in Leeds?
The median sold price in Leeds over the 12 months to June 2026 was £247,000, based on 8,677 sales registered with HM Land Registry. Half of the homes sold went for between £183,000 and £345,000.
Are house prices in Leeds going up or down?
The median sold price in Leeds is +0.8% compared with the previous 12 months. Over five years (2020 to 2025), the median has changed by +24%. Averages move with the mix of homes sold, so a change of a few per cent can reflect which homes happened to sell as much as a change in values.
How much does a house cost in Leeds?
Median sold prices in Leeds over the 12 months to June 2026: detached houses £425,000; semi-detached houses £260,000; terraced houses £200,000; flats and maisonettes £150,000.
How many homes sell in Leeds each year?
10,169 homes sold in Leeds in 2025, +0.8% on 2024. These are standard open-market sales at full price; repossessions, sales to companies and buy-to-let purchases that Land Registry can identify are excluded.
Why might a home in Leeds sell for more or less than these figures?
These are medians across every home sold, so they mix flats with large detached houses and plain homes with exceptional ones. A single home's value depends on what comparable homes nearby have sold for, its condition and the market at the time. Sales also take weeks or months to appear in Land Registry records, so the latest months are still filling in.
