‘London leavers’ fall to decade low

Londoners' spending on homes outside the capital has returned to pre-Covid levels, reports Hamptons.

You can get a lot more property for your money outside of the capital; 953 extra square feet, on average, say LonRes & Hamptons as they analyse the latest trends in "London leavers".

The number of cash property sales dropped by 27% from 2013 to 2023 across England, but some locations have seen sharp increases in the proportion of outright purchases compared to mortgaged buyers.
