Lancing property market: common questions

Where is Lancing?

Lancing is about 8 miles west of central Brighton and Hove, in West Sussex. Figures for Lancing cover listings within about 1.5 km of its centre (the dashed ring on the map), not an official boundary.

What is the average house price in Lancing?

The median asking price across the 137 homes for sale in Lancing is £360,000 (as of 4 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 £240,000 and £470,000. That is 15% below Brighton and Hove. Homes that actually sold in Lancing went for a median £345,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to January 2026).

Rising. Based on HM Land Registry completed sales, the median sold price in Lancing is up 38% over the last 10 years and up 3% over the last 12 months (12 months to January 2026). These medians compare the homes that happened to sell in each window, so they mix price movement with changes in what sold.

Is Lancing cheaper than Brighton and Hove?

Yes: asking prices in Lancing are typically lower than across Brighton and Hove. The median asking price in Lancing is £360,000 against £425k across Brighton and Hove: 15% below Brighton and Hove.

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 detached houses, at a median £650,000 across 26 listings. The Prices by property type chart on this page covers every type we track.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (137 in Lancing), refreshed daily, as of 4 October 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings. Figures for Lancing cover listings within about 1.5 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 Lancing since April 2026.
  • Brighton and Hove comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of Brighton and Hove, 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 January 2026; sold price per square foot covers the 12 months to July 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.
