    This is one of the reasons you'll read threads on here from us UK guys about why we r fed up with immigration...

    cause all the cheaper houses / apartments have been rented out or sold to them pushing the market way out of the reach of younger first time buyers.

    London prices are just crazy. Even buying a can of Coca Cola in central london is 200% more expensive than other areas!!

    That appartment is in a particularly expensive area of London and will probably be bought by a politician to fcuk rent boys before he goes home to wifey, but generaly property prices suck in the UK, the average first time house buyer is in thier mid 30's. Prices are 3-4 times what they were 10 years ago. Houses seem huge in the States in comparison even the shitholes are massive. Good time to emigrate the exchange rate is great for Brits at the moment. But then Id have to live with your steroid laws .
