Will the Olympics result in the start of the next London house price boom?
What say the experts of CUK?
During the olympics, London will be full of celeb-obsessed media, undesirable foreigners, people with backpacks, some of them with beards, and it will get 90% of coverage on national news and television...

They will go up - In Shoreditch we are due to have a development of 460 apartments and the demolishing of some old Council Estates, apartments are already boarded up. There are five other developments within walking distance and while the pace in which they are sold seems to have slowed they are still slowing.
It is only the annual rate of price growth which seems to have slowed even now and there is a lot of money now coming into what was one of the poorest boroughs in the UK.
People and money are coming into the area and that can only be good news in a city where the cost of an apartment can double in 1 mile because it is closer to the Square Mile.
Both. The Olympics will be such an almighty f**k up that the entire country will default. Inflation will hit the stratosphere. The currency will become worthless. So house prices will increase massively if you're paying in pounds, and fall to next to nothing if you're paying in Euros.
