What that means for your property
- The St Helens town WA9 median (£176,000) is the middle of homes that sold on the open market — most in reasonable condition, bought by people who could wait for a mortgage and survey.
- Homes needing major work, with short leases, tenants in place or non-standard construction often sell nearer to, or below, the lower quartile (£128,000).
- A direct sale to us will normally be below open-market value. We’ll show you exactly how we reach our figure.
- If your home is in good condition and you have time, an estate agent will usually get you more — and we’ll say so.

About these figures. Completed sales registered with HM Land Registry, May 2025 – April 2026 — prices people actually paid, not asking prices or estimates. Standard market sales only; transfers, repossession sales and other non-market transactions are excluded. Postcode districts are limited to the borough shown. Groups with fewer than 10 sales aren't reported. These are area figures, not a valuation of any individual property.
