Hastings property market: common questions
Where is Hastings?
Hastings sits on the edge of East Sussex, covering about 9 square miles.
What is the average house price in Hastings?
The median asking price across the 936 homes for sale in Hastings is £295,000 (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 £200,000 and £400,000. That is 22% below East Sussex. Homes that actually sold in Hastings went for a median £280,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to February 2026).
Are house prices in Hastings 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 Hastings 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 Hastings cheaper than East Sussex?
Yes: asking prices in Hastings are typically lower than across East Sussex. The median asking price in Hastings is £295,000 against £380k across East Sussex: 22% below East Sussex. 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 much do flats and houses cost in Hastings?
The median asking price for a flat in Hastings is £180,000. 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 £290,000 across 218 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.
How much is a two-bedroom flat in Hastings?

What is the price per square foot in Hastings?

How these numbers are made
- Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (936 in Hastings), 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 Hastings since May 2026.
- East Sussex comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of East Sussex, 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.
