Emerging markets like London’s commuter belt are now welcoming some of the most impressive rental and capital growth potential.
No.1 location for London workers With the high prices for renting and buying properties in London, it’s no surprise that there has been a trend for people who work in London to live outside of the capital and become commuters. Luton boasts some of the best travel connections in the commuter belt, offering a 22-minute train journey to central London. This and other attractive qualities led to Luton being named the number one town for London commuters in a 2018 survey by estate agent Jackson-Stops.
Luton is set to become an increasingly attractive prospect for UK property investors, with an expected rise in the number of commuters choosing to base themselves in this bustling and growing town. The ease with which individuals can reach the capital makes Luton a perfect choice for busy commuters, with a growing need for new homes helping to create new investment opportunities all the time.
