32 COUNTRY LETTINGS

I am very pleased to welcome you to the second edition of The WM, Winkworth’s own magazine. We hope to offer you insight, advice, inspiration, news and fantastic properties available in your area.

2017 was a busy year for Winkworth, despite a difficult market. We saw seven offices opening across the country, and we have plans for further expansion this year. We will continue to develop our offering, both in London and elsewhere in the country, through our strong network of estate agency offices that together provide the expertise our clients need for the market they are moving to or from.

Although uncertainties in the market remain, we feel confident about the year ahead. We expect house prices to stabilise and to see buyer confidence return. Announcements in the Autumn Budget should have a positive effect on the market, providing a boost to first-time buyers at the lower end of the market, which should, in turn, excel transaction levels further up the ladder. The Government’s promise to build more homes is also a positive for first-time buyers, and an increase in stock levels is of course welcome news for the wider UK property market too. We have seen further signs of recovery from the prime central London market, with increased sales activity in recent months. The same is also happening in the country market.

Winkworth continues to place a strong emphasis on building and growing our lettings offering with a 50:50 sales to letting ratio. This is further enhanced by our relocation department which offers lettings services to corporate clients across London.

Although the market has been affected by a number of changes to Government policy and legislation, we remain positive that many landlords will still see the benefits of letting property.

We hope that you enjoy this edition. If you have any comments or would like to get in touch we would be very keen to hear from you. Please contact us at marketing@winkworth.com

A LONG TERM VIEW London’s property market stabilises after a tumultuous few years

ondon seems to be slowly recovering from what has undoubtedly been a stormy few years; a snap general election, the EU referendum, Brexit and numerous tax changes affecting both domestic and international buyers, have all impacted on the property market. Uncertainty has lead to caution and a demand for historic rather than realistic pricing has lead to a slowing down of the market across the capital. There are shoots of recovery but it will be a long time before we return to the dizzy heights of 2013. The market is finding its feet again in a new climate.

The story of the current London sales market differs somewhat according to the postcode you’re in, but reports are not all doom and gloom. Stability seems to be slowly returning and sellers are adjusting to a new reality, one of realistic pricing. Steve Brown, Branch Manager of Winkworth Blackheath reports a strong local market; ‘Prices here are still 30% higher than the peak of 2007. Borrowing is still extremely competitive and could be a great opportunity to secure an impressive family home with a 10 year plus view.’

With interest rates expected to rise only incrementally this year, those looking to invest for the longer term are still active. The demand is highest in Blackheath for larger family homes and yet in Mayfair, one bedroom apartments are attracting the highest applicant levels. Nick Charalambous, Director of

THE WM ∙ 2018

WM_Sep17_Sales_London_USE.indd 20

buying and selling • news

Winkworth Palmers Green is seeing an increase in applicants migrating from more expensive pockets of North London. ‘Young families looking for long term homes and first time buyers benefiting from stamp duty relief are active at the moment, seeking period properties and excellent transport links,’ he says. ‘It’s certainly a buyers market and despite economic and political uncertainty we are optimistic about the next six months.’

Accurate property valuations are the key to keeping the London market moving. Charles Peerless has a number of Central London Winkworth offices; ‘2017 was an improved sales year as sellers took more note of plausible valuations, proving that when priced correctly, property does sell. The fact is, there are a suitable number of buyers to maintain this status quo and the market remains steady whilst stock levels remain low.’ Brown agrees; ‘We are combating a tricky market by being very honest with our clients and managing expectations accordingly. We have all had to adapt to lower confidence but with realistic pricing and hard work we are still delivering fantastic results.’ The fall in the value of sterling means that the dominant buyers in Central London remain International; ‘These buyers underpin a market that remains giddy for most in its values, we are seeing domestic wealth expand to outer areas and with this, price disparities between the considered smarter

areas such as South Kensington to the likes of Clerkenwell and Shoreditch have never been so low.’ says Peerless.

The outlook seems to be one of cautious optimism; ‘As long as sellers continue to set their expectations realistically, the undercurrent of demand should continue to gather momentum.’ says Charalambous. Properties across the board tend to be selling within three months if priced correctly. Peerless states; ‘If we continue not to deter foreign ownership, and both the UK and international economies remain fundamentally strong, I see no reason for London not to keep its appeal as one of the most sought after cities in the world in which to own a property.’

ondon is seen by many to be made up of a series of villages, all next to each other but with their own climates, characters and individual property markets. Winkworth understand this and with over 60 offices in London can cater to the different needs of each of these areas. What is happening in the rental market in Shepherd’s Bush may be a different story to that of Battersea or Knightsbridge. Where the sales market takes longer to react to external factors in terms of a bounce or slow down, the lettings market in London is fastpaced and constantly evolving within each micro-climate.

Michael Connaughton, Lettings Director of Winkworth in Shepherd’s Bush, explains; ‘The lettings market here is a micro-market, it changes from week to week, the trick is to price realistically and avoid void periods. Our average property is only on for three weeks and good quality properties are still in high demand.’ It’s a slightly different story in Prime Central London, ‘Properties are currently on the market from one to eight weeks depending on demand for a particular type of property. Smaller properties currently let more quickly than larger ones. Seasonality is becoming harder to predict. In 2017 we let a large number of family homes in the first few months of

the year,’ says Max Chaudry, Lettings Director of Winkworth Knightsbridge and Chelsea. ‘Things are feeling more positive after a busy start to 2018. Rents seem more stable, and we are beginning to see some rent increases again. There is certainly higher demand than there was in 2017 and we are hoping this trend will continue.’

With the changes in Stamp Duty Land Tax that came in to play in April 2016, London is seeing fewer traditional British landlords investing in the market across the regions but international tenants are still keen to live in London. ‘Typically most investors want a quick return and London’s provided that in the past.

The sales market has slowed down in the last few years and values haven’t increased at previous rates but this does not suggest they’ll remain low forever.

In the long term owning property has always proved to be a successful investment in London and I see no reason why this will not continue,’ says Max. Tenants’ expectations seem to be rising across areas and if landlords listen to these demands for modernised, well maintained homes, then everyone gains. ‘We have seen an increase in renewals across Battersea and Clapham, this has meant that landlords have less void periods, less risk with new tenants and tenants take more care of their home.’ says Hannah WatsonToft, Head of Residential Lettings in Battersea and

Clapham. Battersea and Clapham continue to attract professional sharers and growing families, due to the diversity of property, green spaces and fabulous range of restaurants, bars and foodie businesses. The market here has remained consistent and looks set to continue as we enter the busy spring period.

The lettings market across London seems to be stabilising at the moment with some challenges ahead for both landlords and tenants. Tenants are becoming more demanding and more aware of the choice that they have; ‘This is a tenants market so don’t be scared to view properties above your budget and if you find something you like make an offer.’ suggests Michael.

‘When the market is tricky, we have found that properties that are in excellent condition and have been modernised are often still able to increase their rent but those that are looking tired take larger price falls.’

t would not be unreasonable to expect a meeting with four Prime Central London Winkworth Directors, given the current property climate, to be rather a despondent affair. Quite the contrary.

While the market in Prime Central London is a difficult one, deals are very much still happening – if handled correctly from the offset. James, Alex, Josh and Will are all experts in their fields, with a wealth of knowledge on both the area they operate in and the market that they share. South Kensington saw its busiest December for three years, Notting Hill its busiest quarter similarly, and the start of the year has been positive for all. Prime Central London is becoming a more traditional market again: there are far fewer international investors than a couple of years ago and we are now seeing more owner occupiers, both British and European, reassuringly.

The last few years have not been without their challenges for the housing market here. Dramatic increases in stamp duty, elections and the uncertainty that Brexit has caused have all had an impact, perhaps more so here than in other areas, but things appear now to be stabilising. While the team don’t feel there is likely to be any increase in prices in the coming months, or indeed until after Brexit, there is movement and there are certainly opportunities for both buyers and sellers alike. If you’re serious, that is.

W H I L E T H E R E I S N ’ T L I K E LY T O B E A N INCREASE IN PRICES IN THE COMING M O N T H S , O R U N T I L A F T E R B R E X I T, THERE IS MOVEMENT AND THERE ARE C E R TA I N LY O P P O R T U N I T I E S

Transaction levels are slowly increasing and applicant levels, whilst perhaps lower than normal, are on the whole very good quality. Buyers know what they want and are prepared to move quickly, this is often after they have gained first-hand experience of the market.

Kensington are working with one buyer who is very keen to close on a house, having made low offers on two other properties that were rejected. The properties in question sold at asking price, having been valued correctly. That said, last year up to a staggering 25% of properties on the market in Notting Hill, had been available for over 12 months, largely due to incorrect pricing and perhaps a desire by agents to keep clients happy rather than well-informed.

The key to movement in the market, now more than ever, is pricing. The advice from all of the team is to seek out informed, experienced guidance on getting this right and your property will sell. Where property values in RBKC were until recently worked out on a £/sqft basis, in this market there are other factors to consider. Compare your property against similar properties that have actually sold, and the prices they actually achieved.

If looking at your current competition though, consider how long they have In 2017 the overall been on the market for and try and assess your property dispassionately average price of a in that context. If a similar property property in RBKC was is on the market for £4,000,000 but £2,002,860 has sat there for eight months, it is safe to assume that the price is wrong and should not be taken as a guide for yours. You will have one chance of launching a property freshly to market, it is your most important period of marketing, it is when the best buyers are engaged and those in the market actively looking become aware of the property for the first time. Pricing correctly from the outset is essential and it can be detrimental in the long term if this is ignored. A property that starts off far too high, often ends up selling for less than it should have achieved after months of floundering.

There is undeniably a market here, with opportunities available for all. If you position a property right, it will sell. If you’d like to discuss your property or the current climate in more detail then do get in touch.

Spotlight on

Fulham & Clerkenwell We explore two very different London villages; leafy Fulham and trendy Clerkenwell

by ALEXANDRA HUNTER

 CLERKENWELL

C FUN FACT

The Lab Building was built in 1938 and boasts a prime location near Exmouth Market and Sadler’s Wells Theatre. Once a working laboratory, the iconic building has been converted into modern flats.

MAKING HISTORY

Nestled in the heart of Clerkenwell, the Old Finsbury Town Hall is a Grade II Listed building, steeped in history. It makes an exquisite setting for events, and all profits made go to the Urdang Academy performing arts school.

42

lerkenwell is vibrant, bustling and full of energy. It has been a settlement since Roman times and an original Roman wall can be seen underneath the office building of Bank of America. Now, the area is synonymous with creative businesses and claims to have the highest concentration of architects and building professionals in the world. The area has an array of architecture from the beautiful Georgian period properties around Lloyd Baker Square, to the trendy converted industrial buildings that originally housed thriving printing businesses.

Aside from its history and diversity, Clerkenwell stands out by its location and transport links; close to Islington, The City, Soho and Covent Garden. Crossrail is soon to open with direct trains to Heathrow and Gatwick.

Clerkenwell’s nightlife could not be more diverse, from Michelin star restaurants to the street market pop ups. Modern ‘electric’ bars can be found near some of the oldest pubs in London such as Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese Est.1667.

Recently, there has been a shift from buy to let investors to more applicants looking for residential London homes. This is down in part to the changes in taxation as well the ever-increasing number of young professionals looking for a property with local lifestyle.

 FULHAM

F

ulham is one of London’s more traditional, upmarket, tranquil villages; running alongside the River Thames and a stone’s throw from its slightly smarter neighbour, Chelsea. The market and buyer profile here has remained very similar for many years.

Prices have decreased a little over the last two years but compared to other areas, Fulham continues to fare well. The neighbourhood has long been a favourite of families who stay for decades, city professionals and couples buying together for the first time. Riverside pubs and two of London’s most iconic sports clubs, Queens and The Hurlingham make Fulham an oasis of calm within easy reach of the bustle of the City. Three tube stations, the overground and a river taxi service the area and there’s easy access to the country via the M3/M4 corridor.

Fulham offers a range of properties from period conversions to the classic Victorian town houses in the Peterborough Estate. Today, if you look up from the street level to the top of the houses on Peterborough Estate, you will see Jimmy Nichols’ trademark terracotta lions dotted on the gables of the houses all the way down the streets. In recent years a number of luxury developments have sprung up along

the river offering modern lateral living with river views.

Fulham is a haven for foodies. The iconic River Cafe is a local institution, plus there are several farmers’ markets, numerous cafes and award-winning gastro pubs to choose from for a lazy brunch or supper.

Walking the bridges of The Thames at any hour of the day is always a treat. Bishop’s Park is tucked away between Fulham Palace and Craven Cottage, attracting all sorts of visitors, from families enjoying the lake, to the tourists exploring the Grade I listed Palace where the Bishops of London once lived.

CONCLUSION London is a city that is unique, vast, varied and diverse. Winkworth has over 60 offices in the capital and we know that each area needs to be serviced by local experts who understand the very different offerings of each area. Steeped in history each with their own character, community and architecture, Fulham and Clerkenwell are poles apart but loved by the Londoners who call them home.

EATING OUT

Established in 1987, The River Cafe has earned its place among the capital’s gastronomical hotspots for its ingredient-led Italian food and entrancing views across the Thames.

LUXE LIVING

Peterborough Estate is one of Fulham’s most praised neighbourhoods, located north of South Park. It refers to the rectangle formed by Peterborough road, Wandsworth bridge road, New Kings Road and Studdridge road.

MOVING HOME IS ONE OF THE MOST STRESSFUL THINGS WE’LL EVER DO SO WE NEED TO MAKE IT EASY FOR OUR CLIENTS

Claire M CG RAT H — DIRECTOR

Winkworth Surbiton 020 3861 0010 • mcgrath@winkworth.co.uk winkworth.co.uk/surbiton

How long have you worked in property?

I have been in property for 12 years.

What drives you to do a brilliant job?

I always try and put myself in my clients’ shoes.

Moving home is often one of the most stressful things we’ll ever do so we need to make sure we make it easy for our clients.

What is the most satisfying part of your role?

Q&A

I love going into people’s houses and checking out what they have done with the place. I also love selling or letting a property, knowing we have happy clients and a proactive team.

What has been your most memorable transaction?

We opened our doors just a few months ago and everyone had said what a tough, slow market we were entering. We took on our first property in that week and sold it in the first weekend, with 13 viewings and three offers over the asking price.

56

If money were no object where would you live and why?

My goal is to have houses around the world, that way I could always chase the sunshine.

What do you love about Surbiton?

Surbiton has a strong sense of community and, although technically a town, it feels like a village.

I love being meters from the Thames, without the London price tag. Plus, the architecture of homes around the river is stunning; there’s something for everyone.

What are the best kept local secrets?

I love No 97 gin bar - Sam the owner is amazing and they do brilliant G&Ts and a lovely brunch.

French Tarte and French Table are also fantastic for food and coffee and The Hart’s Boatyard is a beautiful pub right on the Thames. Surbiton Farmer’s Market is a bit of a secret; hosted on every third Saturday of the month on the lovely Maple Road.

Why should a vendor or landlord instruct your office?

We’re part of a large network of offices but we’re independently owned. We hold very strong core values in our office - our staff are hand-picked and have extensive experience. I think it’s important that they understand what our clients are about to go through so that they can empathise through the process.

Winkworth Kennington 020 7587 0600 • nfield@winkworth.co.uk winkworth.co.uk/kennington

How long have you worked in property?

I have been working as an estate agent since 1991 and started at Winkworth Battersea in 1992.

What drives you to do a brilliant job?

To this day I still enjoy the day to day running of the office and take great satisfaction from delivering good professional service to our clients and applicants.

What is the most satisfying part of your role?

Comyn Road and she ended up buying it for £65,000.

I learnt as a young negotiator not to judge a book by its cover and always take time to listen to people.

If money were no object where would you live and why?

I’d build a eco-house close to our family in Surrey.

What do you love about Kennington?

I love the people that live here and I am fortunate to work within the community. Over the last 10 years I decided we should engage more with our local area, so I started sponsoring events and I recently sponsored two local lads to row across the Atlantic.

I am a trustee and mentor for a local charity called Change Up @ Kennington Cross which is very rewarding. I also love the huge variety of different styles of property you find in and around Kennington.

What are the best kept local secrets?

What satisfies me the most is passing on my experiences and knowledge to our junior negotiators and watching them learn the craft. Many have gone onto be very successful in property so to have been part of that journey makes me feel good.

Its best secret is its location. For many years people ignored the area but now they are realising how close Kennington is to The City and West End.

What has been your most memorable transaction?

Like any estate agency your most valuable asset is your staff. We retain our staff for many years and that allows them to pass on their knowledge and experience. This makes for smooth transactions all round.

In Battersea back in 1991, a lady popped in to my office, sat down and said; ‘I want to buy a flat but no one is taking me seriously.’ We went to a flat on
