Prices are as paid, not adjusted for inflation. Standard (category A) sales only; Land Registry adds a sale when it is registered, so the newest months fill in later.

8% of homes sold in the last 12 months were new builds
444 new homes have been sold in Wallingford since 1995; the share peaked at 33% in 2002.
New-build share of sales

A new home sold for a median £595,000
against £410,000 for a home sold on, 45% more, over three years. New homes are often a different mix from the homes sold on, so part of the gap is size and type.
