With easing pandemic restrictions resulting in an influx of city professionals returning to the office and an unprecedented number of purchasers searching for homes in urban areas, London’s property market is experiencing a boom. As a result, house prices in the capital are now more than £40,000 higher on average than at the start of the pandemic.*
Young professionals returning to London and seeking a route onto the capital’s booming property market are well catered for by L&Q’s brand-new contemporary Shared Ownership and Help to Buy apartments in three city dweller hotspots at L&Q at Brunel Street Works, L&Q at The Silk District and New Union Wharf.
