It's not a case of can't afford it, I just can't justify spending the money. I'm in London less than 6 months of the year. The running costs of an apartment in London are quite high (dead money) ele. gas, service charges, insurance and council tax etc. It may also put me on Hectors radar.

I can now rent or flat share for less than a tenth of the cost.

It would only make sense to buy if there was capitol appreciation, not going to happen in an over priced market.

We're still waiting to exchange/complete on a 2 bed (over 3 floors) with off street parking and a garage. Got it for 220.

but it's in Hampton Hill so I'm not sure if that counts as London or Middlesex

250ish sounds about right - depends on the neighbourhood.

I would not buy in London, I can't afford it

Properties in London with at least 2 bedrooms for between 500k & 900k - Sorted by price (descending)

You'll have to decide for yourself if the ares are decent.

What happened to the crash, what about 700k?

The crash in London has not happened. The government gave lot of money to the housing associations who purchased empty apartments from builders to stop them from going bust. No over supply no crash.

Not sure there will be a crash in London due to demand. Allsops auctions sales are slower but no crash yet. I would not buy in London, I was thinking about it but changed my mind. Bought in SSH, weather is much better

I'd say £250K is the absolute minimum you'd need for a 1 bed in a decentish area.

At last a sensible answer.

It's a very big place and what some consider 'decent' varies wildly from what others may

Give us some more specifics - like how much are you looking to spend for what and how close in to the centre etc

Say 90k?








;-)


Around 600k-900k maybe more depends on what I see.

[alreadypacked]

That hurts.

Oh DP, not everyone has your millions.

I am thinking about moving to London. How much would a 2 bedroom in a decent area cost? I'm not to sure of the areas and what is considered nice, otherwise I would look up an estate agents website.

If you have to ask, you're too poor to live in London, peasant.
HTH.
