With Surveyors predicting house price falls and the Department of Communities and Local Government releasing figures that prices fell 0.3% in July, what does the market hold for Kingston?

Findaproperty, figures state that house prices fell 1.9% in Kingston Upon Thames as a whole,  but also indicate that the price falls have so far not helped first time buyers.

Carla at Latimer in Kingston has found that there are lots of people in the Kingston area looking to rent long term rather than buy. She says there is currently a real shortage of rental property in the area.

Braar at Greenfield agrees. They have Surbiton and Tolworth offices and have now opened a new Kingston office on Fife Road in the last two weeks. She adds the large number of students in the area increases rental demand.

This explains the letters I have received from estate agents like Dexters asking if I would like to rent out my property.

So if you are looking for a place to rent or buy in the Kingston area why not check out our business directory? We have a large list of local estate agents.
