Despite the uncertainty caused by the pandemic and Brexit, the city’s housing market enjoyed a robust year in 2020, with the value of London’s prime properties expected to creep up even further over the next 12 months, according to a new report by Beauchamp Estates.
Homes valued at £10 million and up across central London’s prime enclaves will see price gains of 1 per cent to 2 per cent in 2021. Big-ticket houses are also expected to be in high demand, with sale values expected to rise by up to 15 per cent, said the property firm.
