For football fans, being able to live near to their team’s home ground is almost as good as going to the match itself. You can soak up the atmosphere, listen to the roar of the crowd, and potentially get a view of all things going on at your club without having to spend a penny. For others though, it can be an area they would rather not live. The noise, the number of people, and perhaps the potential for trouble all steer people in the direction of wanting to sell.
We thought we would take a look at the average house costs per premier league club for the 2022/23 season. Maybe it’ll act as an incentive to buy a property close to the team you love, maybe the price will be a pleasant surprise and incentivise you to think about selling a house.
Our house price data is correct as per government figures that were made available at end of March 2022 and gives you the average house price for the local authority the football club resides within.
We have put the teams in the order they finished in the table at the end of last season with the newly promoted teams at the bottom. Then for a bit of fun, we have put them in a league table of highest increase to lowest. Where does your team fall?

2. Liverpool- Anfield

3. Chelsea- Stamford Bridge
Chelsea has always been seen as an exclusive area and before the recent buy out the football club were owned by multi-billionaire Roman Abramovich.

Spurs quest for a Champions League place was a dramatic affair, unbeaten in 5 games, they only just managed to secure Champions League football Tottenham have always been astute in the transfer market, getting good prices for players they sell as well as buy.

The increase in the borough of Haringey is only 1.5% on last year making for an average house price of £584,622 compared to 2021s total of £575,885.
5. Arsenal- The Emirates
Staying in London, the North London rivals of Tottenham and Arsenal were pipped to the post for elite European club football for 2022/23. Much like their fierce rivals though, property prices didn’t alter much and only saw a 2% increase. Current averages in Islington show that people are paying £699,757 for a house compared to £685,818 last year.
6. Manchester United- Old Trafford
It still seems inconceivable that a once-great team now regularly find themselves competing for the less prominent places in the worlds most famous league. The days of lifting trophies could be returning with a new manager but only time will tell. House prices in Trafford though have seen a better increase than some teams higher up the table. 2022 providing sellers with a 7.8% increase on the prior year. Current average property costs come in at £350,757 compared to £325.265 for 2021.
7. West Ham- The London Stadium
The Hammers have been consistent performers under David Moyes and European football is becoming a regular thing at the London Stadium. Cheaper than some of the other areas in London, the area of Newham has seen a steady rise of 3.8% on house prices with the 2021 average of £393,936 increasing to £408,856.
8. Leicester City- The King Power Stadium
A few years ago, Leicester City lit up the premier league with their against the odd title win. Whilst a return to that level of silverware remains unlikely, the team perform well in the league and cup competitions and possess many players in demand. The house prices in Leicester are among the lowest but have seen a sharp increase. £224,800 should secure you a property this year whereas in 2021 you could pay £202,282.
9. Brighton- The Amex
Brighton surpassed many expectations last season with their performances and will expect to at least match it for the 2022/23 campaign. A seaside town and popular with tourists, Brighton will always be a popular place to live. House prices leapt by the same amount as the final league position for the football club (9%) and resulted in people now paying on average £426,554 compared to £390,845 last year.
10. Wolves- Molineaux

11. Newcastle- St James’ Park
New investment and a new manager saw an incredible turn around for the club last season.

House prices continued an upwards trajectory too with the average rising by 9.1% to £187,242.
12. Crystal Palace- Selhurst Park
The Eagles have started to show some form under the guidance of Patrick Viera and fans will be hoping for improvements next season to keep them flying high.

13. Brentford- Brentford Community Stadium
Brentford perhaps surprised many by staying up in the Premier League, but the goals of Ivan Toney certainly helped and they will look to maintain this lucrative status again in the new campaign. Keeping true to form with other London boroughs the increases haven’t been as high as other places in the country, and this is thought to be due to the low number of sales across the city. A 1.3% increase means that Hounslow property can expect to fetch around £431,343.
14. Aston Villa- Villa Park
With Steven Gerrard at the helm, big things are expected at Aston Villa and with time they could well come. The permanent signing of Coutinho is seen as a statement of intent no doubt. Living close to Villa Park is 8% more expensive than it was in 2021, if trophies come next could that increase reach double digits? Selling your home now in Birmingham could next you £221,077.
15. Southampton- St Mary’s Stadium
Living by the coast is nice for families, couples and just about anybody. Maybe its even better when a football club is added to the mix.

A 10.7% increase could see you sell for an average of £238.080 in 2022.
16. Everton- Goodison Park
Unlike their city rivals in red, the toffees had a bit of a struggle last season, flirting with relegation, having a player suspended pending investigation, and another player launching a flare into the crowd. Under the guidance of Frank Lampard, they will be hoping for vast improvements in the 22/23 season. Despite the lack of on-field success, living near Goodison has seen prices increase with the average for Liverpool itself rising by 10.9% to £175,728.
17. Leeds United- Elland Road
Much was hoped of with Leeds for the last season. Bielsa the attacking manager, seen by many as a huge global influence on the game just couldn’t get it to work. At times relegation looked imminent. They survived though and those looking to get closer to the team can expect to pay £226,876 for a property, up 8.4% on last year.
18. Fulham- Craven Cottage
Returning to the premier league in style, Fulham may be touted as early relegation candidates for next season. In the most expensive area on our list, properties in Fulham are the same as Chelsea with £753,234 being the average price of a house currently.
19. Bournemouth- Vitality Stadium
Returning to the premier league, some may expect the cherries to be a yo-yo club and find themselves bouncing between divisions. The house prices aren’t doing that though and with a 10.7% increase on last year, could this season in the elite division see them rise even more? £328,953 is now the average so could it be worth cashing in?
20. Nottingham Forest- The City Ground
It is a welcome return to one of Britain’s most famous clubs but the likelihood of them returning to the days of lifting European cups seem long gone.
