    Prime London homes that stayed on the market for six to 12 months sold for an average of 11.1% below their original asking price between July and September, according to LonRes. Homes that sold within three months gave up just 3.8%.

    LonRes also found prime London prices down 7.1% on a year earlier in September, with price reductions 42.6% above the 2015–2024 average.

    On the public route, every week on a portal is visible. Buyers can see how long a home has been listed and every price cut along the way. That history becomes part of the negotiation.
