London Property Investment

Dreaming of investing in prime London property? Get up to speed with the state of the London Property Investment market before making your decision with our guide to Investing near London.

Is London a good place to invest in property?

London has historically performed excellently for investors. That said, with relatively slow growth following Brexit, the capital’s expected price growth of 4% over the next five years is expected to under-perform against regional cores.

This means alternatives such as the West Midlands and the North West are typically more attractive in the medium to long-term.

However, London is still and will always remain one of the most investable places in the world due to the global strength of the UK economy and the amount of inward investment it receives – particularly from the Fintech sector. While London property is still seeing slow recovery, it remains a resilient asset.
