In this month's edition, Rightmove have released their latest house price index, giving you all the latest information on the current condition of the market. In the London Report, there is some real positive monthly change in price movement for Lambeth and Southwark which is great for vendors with property in the postcodes of SE1 and SE11. The London report also indicates since December 2017 average time to sell in number of days is reducing month by month which again is positive news for vendors.

We also take a look at why sellers and investors should be excited about developments along the Thames. According to research performed by the BBC, Southwark has played host to the sale of over 2,062 properties worth over a million pounds, whilst Greenwich and Lambeth both oversaw the sale of 2172 and 2171 million-pound properties, respectively. This is great news for sellers, as all three boroughs continue to see investment in the area, in the form of new developments and the regeneration of areas along the Thames, which is driving property values even higher. Property experts believe that property prices in the boroughs along the Thames will continue to remain steady, with only slight fluctuations of 2% in value over the next two years. However, by 2020, they expect prices to continue on their upward trend.
