Have I mentioned that our annual report, London Residential Market Analysis (LOREMA) is now out in a digital version, and it's FREE? At the risk of overkill, here's the Breakfast presentation we gave to launch the report yesterday. Thank you to all who attended and for the very encouraging feedback, much appreciated. But if you weren't there here's a taster:

The heat map below shows the average £psf values of schemes currently selling in London:



This is what we say about it in the LOREMA report:

As we have seen there is a very clear dichotomy between construction starts in the inner and outer boroughs. We have stated that the main reason is the different drivers of each market, debt in the outer boroughs, equity in the inner ones.

If mortgage availability is still limited then we would expect sales in the outer boroughs to be limited to a certain extent to the less expensive and in general furthest away (from the centre) boroughs with sales in the inner boroughs concentrated around the centre.

In between these two areas of activity we would expect to see a "dead zone" as far as sales are concerned in areas that are not far out enough to be affordable by owner occupier standards but not close enough to the centre to be prime. This is a very simplistic generalisation but Map 5 seems to bear the assumption out.

This is just one of the many maps in the LOREMA report. Want to see the whole lot?

nothing to do with the mighty Peter Lorimer (Leeds, midfielder, early 70s) who could hit a ball faster than any person on the planet. No this is the London Residential Market Analysis from London Residential Research, LOREMA for short. Here's our fancy new front page:

Nice isn't it...the data which comes after it is even nicer. Not only is it the most accurate, unbiased and comprehensive source of data on the London resi market, but it's now digital and it's FREE. Here's an example of one of the interactive maps in the report:

A new planning application has been submitted for the redevelopment of Reed House, 82/84 Piccadilly. The existing building plans to be demolished to make way for a new development over 4 blocks made up of 4/5/6/9 storeys. Planning permission for the redevelopment of the site was granted in 2011; however the new plans look to half the amount of office space from the previously granted 12,369 sq m gross to 6,808 sq m gross (resulting in the loss of 7,814 existing office space). This will make way for 48 residential units. The application outlines all housing to be private, however this is not confirmed and the planning statement outlines that there is 'potential for the provision of 12 affordable units'. The scheme will also include     1,663 sq m gross retail space, a 1,385 sq m gross spa and 1,885 sq m gross dedicated to the Kennel Club. The developer is British Land Company and the planning consultant is DP9. The planning application can be found here.

The Apprentice house 2013 finally revealed!

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Last year we were first to find the Apprentice house, and this year we've done it again.

Lincoln's Inn Field now not only boasts the largest public square in London and houses the famous Soane Museum, No. 6 will be the residency for Lord Alan Sugar's latest puppets - the Apprentice 2013. Would be a great place to be based if they get a chance to put their feet up - not entirely sure if that's the point of the show though!

The apprentice house 2013 revealed!

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Last year we revealed that the Apprentice House was at 17 Porchester Terrace in W2, click here for the blog. This year we can reveal that the house is in Holborn...err somewhere. Our best guess at the moment is Russell Square. We could equally take a punt on Bedford Square but that's where the 2010 house was, blogged here. Surely they're not going back to the same house are they? I know the Beeb's cutting back, but really...

New application for the conversion of the tower to 82 private flats by Almacantar. No affordable housing on site, instead it's going to be located on the current site of the Intrepid Fox. Those familiar with Soho a few years ago may remember the Fox as the favoured drinking hole of the City's bike couriers:

Intrepid Wardour.jpgHowever it was changed to the Obar a few years ago:

Intrepid Obar.jpg...but undaunted the pub moved premesis to St Giles High Street:
