The Short is almost entirely detached houses. The median sale price is £290,000, about 50% below the typical RG8 sale. Per square metre of floor space it comes to about £3,062, below the district's £4,752. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; RG8 prices as a whole have been easing. HM Land Registry records 21 sales across 14 homes since 2002 — homes here come up rarely.
