Derby property market: common questions

Where is Derby?

Derby is in Derbyshire, covering about 29 square miles.

What is the average house price in Derby?

The median asking price across the 1,498 homes for sale in Derby is £230,000 (as of 5 October 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 £165,000 and £300,000. That is 34% below the UK. Homes that actually sold in Derby went for a median £220,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).

Are house prices in Derby rising or falling?

Rising over the long run, flat over the last year. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Derby is up 60% over the last 10 years and broadly flat over the last 12 months (12 months to February 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Derby cheaper than the UK?

Yes: asking prices in Derby are typically lower than across the UK. The median asking price in Derby is £230,000 against £350k across the UK: 34% below the UK. Some of that gap reflects what is for sale in each place rather than like-for-like value. The saving holds from the lower end to the top of the market.

How many homes are for sale in Derby?

1,498 homes are on the market in Derby right now, 345 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

How much do flats and houses cost in Derby?

The median asking price for a flat in Derby is £115,000. Houses are quoted by type rather than as one figure, because the mix moves the number more than the market does: the largest group on the market is semi-detached houses, at a median £230,000 across 405 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How much is a two-bedroom flat in Derby?

The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Derby is £120,000, across 158 current listings.

How much is a three-bedroom house in Derby?

There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Derby is semi-detached houses, at a median asking price of £230,000 across 270 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.

What is the price per square foot in Derby?

In Derby, homes that sold went for a median £262 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £262 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (1,498 in Derby), refreshed daily, as of 5 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings.
  • 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 Derby since May 2026.
  • UK comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of UK, 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. Sold prices and sales counts cover the 12 months to February 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to August 2026, with floor areas from EPC certificates (the two run on different pipelines, and the latest months are left out while sales are still being registered). England and Wales; new-builds and non-standard transactions excluded.
