Wolverhampton property market: common questions

Where is Wolverhampton?

Wolverhampton sits on the edge of West Midlands, covering about 24 square miles.

What is the average house price in Wolverhampton?

The median asking price across the 902 homes for sale in Wolverhampton is £250,000 (as of 20 August 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 £181,238 and £325,000. That is 29% below UK. Homes that actually sold in Wolverhampton went for a median £225,000 (Land Registry, 12 months to December 2025).

How many homes are for sale in Wolverhampton?

902 homes are on the market in Wolverhampton right now, 242 of them listed in the last 30 days. Perch counts every listing it tracks across estate agents and portals, refreshed daily.

Are house prices being cut in Wolverhampton?

72 listings in Wolverhampton had their asking price reduced in the last 30 days, about 8% of the homes currently for sale.

How long are homes on the market in Wolverhampton?

Of the Wolverhampton listings that came off the market in the last 30 days and that we first saw after we began tracking the area, the typical one had been advertised for 58 days. Coming off the market usually means sold subject to contract, but it can also mean withdrawn, so treat this as time advertised rather than time to sell.

How much do flats and houses cost in Wolverhampton?

The median asking price for a flat in Wolverhampton is £110,000; for a house it is £260,000. Use the property type and bedroom filters on this page for a finer cut.

In Wolverhampton, homes that sold went for a median £251 per sq ft (HM Land Registry and EPC data), and current listings with a known floor area ask a median £233 per sq ft.

How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (902 in Wolverhampton), 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 Wolverhampton since October 2025.
  • 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 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.
