But everywhere's catching up. If my kids' futures weren't sorted, I'd be worried sick about how they were going to get on the property ladder one day, and basically just survive. I'm told that you can still buy small terraced places in the "not so nice" areas of London, that, once done up'll probably bring in a good return, but then as I say, other areas are getting more expensive now as well. Still think it's a good idea to buy in London though. I've known people to make massive profits which's enabled them to move abroad into property which'd be unthinkable here.
