Reading the LS1 market
The most recent advertised sale cohort has a median asking price of £164,950 in 2026M08. Monthly asking rent has a median of £1,224 in 2026M08. These describe advertised property cohorts and are not achieved transaction prices or rent.
The repeat-sales index’s last observed period is 2025-12. Use the model’s published basis and interval when interpreting later periods. Area yield is an indicator built from asking rent and asking prices; it does not include property-specific operating, finance or tax costs.
Sources and statistical basis
Monthly statistics from portal listings by area and bedroom band. listings_added_n is the NEVER-REDUCED cohort dated by 'Added on' and undercounts new listings by reduction_share, by construction; listings_reduced_n is dated by the last reduction. Asking distributions are of what came to market that month. Yields: gross_yield_asking is cell rent x 12 over the same cell's asking price; gross_yield_avm_median is per UPRN-matched listing against the unit's AVM value. asking_to_sold and days_to_completion are on listings the registry matched to a sale within 18 months (sold_matched_n) — a match-rate-limited subset, NOT a sell-through rate.
UPRN-matched, non-anomalous sales the cube attributes to the period — a sample size, not the registry's count. For volume use /market/volume-series.
