London House Price Outlook
After a very hectic couple of years in the London housing market, normality returned to the London housing market in 2022 and it seems that 2023 will see lower levels of activity than 2022 accompanied by modest falls in house prices, although a shortage of homes for sale is keeping prices keen.
On balance, house prices in London appear to be falling. In January 19 boroughs saw average house price falls and 15 saw house prices rise. We expect that house prices will soften in the coming months in London, but we do not expect to see a house price crash.
In the medium term, the war on inflation has overtaken the COVID-19 pandemic as the biggest risk factor for London house prices, but as inflation is taken back under control we would expect to see a continued recovery in housing transaction volumes and positive momentum maintained for house prices.
Please note that lower-than-usual levels of housing transactions mean that house prices at the borough level will show higher levels of volatility than normal.
