What to expect in the London property market in 2025
21/12/2024
As we welcome 2025, all eyes are on the London property market, where shifting trends and global events are setting the stage for an intriguing year ahead. One of the most surprising developments has been a surge of interest from US-based buyers, spurred by the recent US election. London’s enduring reputation as a global financial hub and cultural capital continues to attract international attention, making it a prime destination for those seeking a secure investment or a second home.
Experts predict that 2025 could mark a significant turning point for London’s housing market. With more companies now mandating a return to the office, demand for properties in the capital is on the rise after several years of uncertainty. The impending increase in stamp duty charges from 1st April is also expected to spark a flurry of activity in the first quarter, as first-time buyers, home-movers, and investors rush to complete transactions before the higher rates take effect. These factors, combined with stabilising interest rates, point to a dynamic and competitive year ahead.
