Buyer's guide: London

London property for sale ranges from studio flats to Georgian townhouses, and RealEstateAbroad has 3,423 listings with a median asking price of €1,644,750. That works out at about €14,758 per m², placing London among the most expensive markets in our data. Overseas buyers face no ownership bans, but they do pay extra tax, so it pays to know the full cost.

Flats dominate, but houses are a real option

Apartments account for 2,329 listings, houses for 982, penthouses for 51, and there are small numbers of land (12), studios (8), commercial (4) and villas (2). Two-bedroom homes are the largest group (928), followed by one-bedroom (538), three-bedroom (535), four-bedroom (357) and five or more (334).

In London, almost every flat is leasehold, which means you own the right to occupy for a fixed term, often 99 to 999 years. Check the remaining lease length (anything under 80 years can complicate resale or mortgages), ground rent and service charges. Houses are more often freehold. Browse UK apartments, houses and penthouses.

Areas and character

Central London's prime districts include Kensington, Chelsea, Mayfair and Belgravia, where prices per m² can far exceed the city median. Zones further out offer more space: Clapham, Battersea, Putney and Wimbledon in the south-west are popular with families; see our pages for Putney and Wimbledon. The east has transformed around Canary Wharf, Stratford and the new Elizabeth line stations, which added fast links across the capital.

For commuter-belt alternatives, Beckenham in the south-east and Sevenoaks in Kent give more garden for the money with rail access into central London.

Stamp duty and other costs for non-residents

Buyers of residential property in England pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on a sliding scale. Additional rates apply when you buy a further home, and a 2% surcharge applies for non-UK residents, which can add substantially to the bill on a seven-figure purchase. Legal fees, survey costs and, for leasehold flats, searches on the management company add to the total. Rates and thresholds change, so use current HMRC guidance or a solicitor.

Owners also pay council tax, and non-resident landlords must register for UK tax on rental income. Companies holding high-value UK property face the Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings and other rules. Our UK buying guide summarises the process, UK mortgage options look at lender criteria for overseas buyers, and the UK analysis page offers background.

Practical advice

Hire an English solicitor or conveyancer, order a RICS survey on older buildings, and be careful with off-plan purchases from overseas marketers. The process is not binding until contracts are exchanged, so the risk of gazumping exists. Overseas buyers also need to pass anti-money-laundering checks, which means showing the source of funds. You can test a price with our property valuation tool.

Reading the price per m²

The €14,758 per m² median hides a very wide spread. The bottom quarter of listings is below €885,499 while the top quarter starts at €3,381,354, so a one-bedroom flat in Zone 3 and a Chelsea townhouse sit in the same dataset. When you compare, filter by borough, size and tenure. Asking prices in London often fall short of what is actually paid by a few per cent, and sealed bids or best-and-final rounds can occur on popular homes.

Beyond the capital

If London is out of budget, consider Manchester or York, or browse cheaper homes in the UK. The United Kingdom hub lists more places.

Buying property in London: FAQ

Can a foreigner buy property in London?

Yes, there are no restrictions based on nationality for buying residential property in England. Non-UK residents pay an additional 2% SDLT surcharge and must complete anti-money-laundering checks.

How much does a London flat cost?

Across our listings the median asking price is €1,644,750 and €14,758 per m². Outer-zone flats cost far less than prime central addresses.

What does leasehold mean?

You own the flat for a set term rather than outright. Check the length of the lease, the ground rent and the service charge before you buy.

Is London a good investment?

It has deep rental demand and a global buyer base, but yields are typically lower than in many other cities, and taxes on investors have risen. Run the numbers for each property.

Do I need a UK bank account?

It is useful for paying taxes and bills but not always required to purchase. Your solicitor will explain what you need to move the purchase funds.
