Can someone in the UK tell me how that home costs £450k? Is real estate that crazy over there or are they trying to recover the £300k they spent for the marble?
40 mins to central London on tube. Lots of green spaces near by. 2 solid square bedrooms, all the cosmetic crap easily stripped out. Hard standing for 2 cars, decent back garden. Semi detached.
The only reason it's not more is "it's Dagenham" and the general shabby state of the street.
This'll get snapped up by professional couple earning 160k+ combined willing to await the inevitable gentrification in 5/10 years.
That's London prices for you. That's likely the bottom end of the price scale.
Not in the UK, but I'm guessing, like real estate anywhere, high population + limited availability?
There are 9 million people living in London. 607 square miles, which means, on average, 14,827 people per square mile.
Compared to, say, San Francisco with 808,000 people in 47 square miles, 17,191 people per square mile.
Globally though, numbers like this aren't even in the top 25:

My "city" is embarrassed. 635,000 people in 145 square miles. 4,379 people per square mile. We're absolutely porous by comparison.
Reading that I had to check my area, and it's a whopping 1518 people in 205.11 square miles or about 7 people per square mile. You got us beat by a long shot.
This is one of the areas that London expanded into, it was in Essex until to 60s. It's not desirable.
