Halifax property market: common questions
Where is Halifax?
Halifax is in West Yorkshire, covering about 9 square miles.
What is the average house price in Halifax?
The median asking price across the 325 homes for sale in Halifax is £170,000 (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 £117,500 and £275,000. That is 31% below West Yorkshire. Homes that actually sold in Halifax went for a median £156,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).
Are house prices in Halifax 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 Halifax is up 46% 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 Halifax cheaper than West Yorkshire?
Yes: asking prices in Halifax are typically lower than across West Yorkshire. The median asking price in Halifax is £170,000 against £245k across West Yorkshire: 31% below West Yorkshire. 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 Halifax?
325 homes are on the market in Halifax right now, 116 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 Halifax?
The median asking price for a flat in Halifax is £80,000. 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 terraced houses, at a median £152,500 across 122 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.
How much is a two-bedroom flat in Halifax?
The median asking price for a two-bedroom flat in Halifax is £115,000, across 49 current listings.
How much is a three-bedroom house in Halifax?
There is no single three-bedroom house price: the largest group of three-bedroom houses for sale in Halifax is terraced houses, at a median asking price of £170,000 across 41 listings. The Size × type view on this page covers every combination we track.
What is the price per square foot in Halifax?
In Halifax, homes that sold went for a median £188 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £191 per sq ft.
How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (325 in Halifax), 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 Halifax since April 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. 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.
