Mansion tax: what it means for London homeowners and how it will work
Properties valued at £2 million or higher will face a “mansion tax” from April 2028. The move was announced by former chancellor Rachel Reeves in her Budget last year and there has been much speculation about whether her replacement, John Healey, will expand the scheme. Mr Healey was reportedly proposing to reduce the threshold of the levy to properties worth £1.5 million.
Bucking the trend: The 20 London streets where house prices are defying the market
What makes a street desirable? In London’s beleaguered property market, where the latest ONS figures show house prices falling 3.3 per cent in the past year, that question feels more pertinent than ever for anyone thinking of buying or selling a home. Property data website Brick View has identified 20 streets in London where the average transaction value has soared by comparing the average value of sales from July 2020 to July 2023 (the Covid era) with July 2023 to July 2026 (post-Covid).

Burnham the builder — or the taxman cometh? What the new Prime Minister means for the London property market
Above all else, what any housing market needs is stability. The very whisper of change or uncertainty can stall sales. Over the past five years political jolts, at home and abroad, have come fast and frequently, putting the Londonproperty market on pause each time and halting any serious momentum. This week another prime minister has entered No 10 Downing Street — the seventh in a decade — against a jarring discord of noise from the property industry.
Revealed: The top 10 UK cities for first-time buyers
The common property rite of passage for graduates and career-focused first jobbers has changed over the past decade. Many careers used to start in London, and an early house-share would be followed by a first flat purchase, then a move to somewhere bigger. However, the heavy burden of housing costs in the capital is making would-be first-time buyers stop and evaluate whether – even with London weighting on some wages – it is possible to get on the ladder there.

Ten years on, how Brexit hit London house prices
Baby boomers will remember where they were when they heard that Kennedy had been shot, or where they watched (or listened to) England win the World Cup in 1966. For younger generations the Brexit referendum on June 23, 2016 is one of those moments. It felt big. And it was, particularly for London. It signalled the end of an era for the capital's property market, which had seen a decade of rocketing house price growth.

Scrap stamp duty and council tax to fix London housing crisis, thinktank says
Stamp duty should be scrapped and replaced with a new property wealth tax to fix London’s housing crisis, a leading thinktank has proposed. A report on the capital’s property market suggests an annual tax to replace the levy paid when buying a property and council tax would encourage downsizing and raise funds for social housing. It would also help renters to save a house deposit. The research, by the Centre for London, highlighted disparities in space between the poorest and wealthiest homeowners.

Revealed: The new affordable commuter hotspots in Great Britain
The commuter belt is being redrawn. During Covid, in the hope that remote working would stick, buyers broke free from conventions and transformed the housing map. A race for space – and to the coast and rural areas – were the stories of the pandemic. As the call back to the office intensified, this trend unwound and homebuyers began targeting the more traditional commuter zones once again.
What is in store for London house prices and mortgage rates following the spring statement?
Over Labour's 18-month tenure, its set-piece fiscal announcements have featured headline-grabbing housing policy – the pending mansion tax, the two per cent hike on property income tax, the abolition of non-dom status, the increase in social housing funding and the relaxing of planning law. Other measures such as VAT on private school fees have made an impact on certain localised housing markets too.

London rents ended the year lower than where they started for first time on record
