What is the average house price in Halifax?
The median asking price across the 378 homes for sale in Halifax is £182,500 (as of 20 August 2026).

That is 26% below West Yorkshire. Homes that actually sold in Halifax went for a median £155,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to December 2025).

How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (378 in Halifax), refreshed daily, as of 20 August 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 Halifax since March 2026.
- West Yorkshire comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of West Yorkshire, 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.
