Nick Churton of London-based Mayfair International Realty (an affiliate of Intracoastal Realty) reports on the awakening of the real estate market in the UK capital.
There is excellent news for U.S.-dollar
buyers in London. They will now find the lowest real estate prices in the UK
capital for many years. Average prices in central London have fallen by about
20 percent since the last peak in 2014. With currency exchange factored in,
dollar buyers today gain by about 38 percent compared to five years ago.
All this comes at a time when there
is a bounce in the step of property buyers in London. Since the decisive
general election victory in December by Boris Johnson and his Conservative
party, the uncertainty that had hung like a large gloomy cloud around the Brexit
question has been lifted. The real estate community went from despair to
delight in the course of a dramatic election night. Call it a Boris or Brexit
bounce, but there was an immediate re-engagement in the real estate sector.
That early interest continues unabated. Now pundits are even boldly forecasting
a price rise of up to 10 percent during 2020.
Highlighting this newfound
excitement is the sale of a Knightsbridge mansion to a Chinese buyer for a
reputed $365 million – making it the most expensive property sale in the UK.
The purchase of this 60,000 sq. ft. home emphasises the attraction central
London has for overseas buyers. This global destination for the wealthy of the
wealthiest, attracted by commerce, fashion, culture, law, medicine, education,
and finance, is most certainly back in business.
London and the rest of the UK look forward to a spring property market with a big bounce in its step.
