London’s property market underwent a series of shake ups in 2024. Before the general election we saw an overhaul of the leasehold system then, after the Labour Party victory and formation of a new government, there have been changes to stamp duty and rental reform. And since November, when Donald Trump was elected in the US, experts have predicted a knock-on effect on property in London.
Beyond the headlines, this has been a year of emerging property trends: a rise in “Birdnesting” amongst divorced couples, families embracing apartment living and “propfluencers” shaking up the capital’s property scene.
