Greenwich House Prices Rising
30th September 2020 posted in Sellers Buyers
Given the price of property in London, it is easy to see why so many people are looking to move while the stamp duty holiday is in place. With the average price of property in London coming in at more than £650,000; the average price is above the stamp duty threshold.
This means buyers at this price level can save £15,000 on stamp duty fees. This is a significant saving, and it is likely that there will be a lot more movement in the London housing market over the next few months.
At Hunters Greenwich, we are pleased to say we have spoken with many prospective buyers and vendors in Greenwich recently. This is a fantastic area of London, and we know why so many people are drawn to the local area.
Greenwich offers tremendous value for money
According to Zoopla, the average price paid for property in Greenwich in the past 12 months is £593,964. This is less than the average price stated for London property, but still above the stamp duty holiday threshold, so there will be a lot of people keen to learn more about the housing market in Greenwich.
While there are many fantastic homes on offer in Greenwich, we appreciate many prospective buyers are drawn to new homes. For a lot of people, there is something to be said for entering a new house, and being the first family to call it their own.

Greenwich has experienced a sharp bump since 2015. Five years ago, the average price paid for new property in Greenwich was £323,253 and in 2020, this has risen to £424,281.
