What the numbers mean

Reading the Tamworth 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

Prices are rising

The median sold price in Tamworth is 2.0% higher than in the previous 12 months. A rising market helps sellers, but it also tempts asking prices ahead of the evidence, and the buyer's lender will value the home on recent comparable sales, not on hope.

When sales complete

Completions in Tamworth have peaked in March, August and June 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

A rising market

Prices in Tamworth are 2.0% up on the previous year. In a rising market it is easy to stretch to win a home; the risk is paying more than a lender's valuer will support, which leaves a gap to fund yourself.

How many homes sell in Tamworth each year?

Why might a home in Tamworth 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.
