Market and real estate prices in London
The real estate market in London is no longer growing at its former pace. The rise in interest rates signals the end of the cheap borrowing that set the stage for the global boom. The war and all the geopolitical events associated with it led to an increase in the cost of energy, and with that building materials, increased costs in connection with logistics. In addition, there was a significant outflow of wealthy buyers who were interested in residential property in London. There are currently fewer people willing to buy property in London among Russian, Chinese, and Arab investors. Part of the vacuum has been filled by rich British people investing in real estate in London with their savings to protect them from inflation.
In general, experts believe that some price correction is taking place, which will result in market stabilization. This is especially noticeable in the commercial segment: some of the commissioned objects in the city, put up for sale by developers, as well as secondary ones from the owners, are currently removed from the market.
Experts clarify that, of course, it is premature to draw conclusions about the deep impact of the political and economic situation on the volume of real estate transactions and the occurrence of stagnation, most likely we should talk about an adaptation period. It will come pretty quickly, as the intention of investors to buy residential real estate in London (houses, apartments in residential complexes), commercial premises has not disappeared, demand is still high, however, it is taking on a deferred character in the short term. Nevertheless, even in these conditions, new buildings are being built, customer reviews confirm the quality of completed projects.
