Bilston property market: common questions

Where is Bilston?

Bilston is in West Midlands. Figures for Bilston cover listings within about 2.0 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Bilston?

The median asking price across the 216 homes for sale in Bilston is £227,475 (as of 20 August 2026). We quote the median (the middle listing) rather than a mean, because a handful of very expensive homes would pull a mean upwards. Half of listings ask between £190,000 and £282,488. That is 13% below West Midlands. Homes that actually sold in Bilston went for a median £205,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to December 2025).

How many homes are for sale in Bilston?

Are house prices being cut in Bilston?

15 listings in Bilston had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 7% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Bilston?

Of the Bilston listings that came off the market in the last 30 days and that we first saw after we began tracking the area, the typical one had been advertised for 61 days. Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

How much do flats and houses cost in Bilston?

The median asking price for a flat in Bilston is £110,000; for a house it is £230,000. Use the property type and bedroom filters on this page for a finer cut.

In Bilston, homes that sold went for a median £232 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £249 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (216 in Bilston), refreshed daily, as of 20 August 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Bilston cover listings within about 2.0 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Bilston since January 2026.
  • West Midlands comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of West Midlands, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
  • Sold figures: HM Land Registry price paid data for the 12 months to December 2025 (the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered), with floor areas from EPC certificates. England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
