Edmonton is good if you wanna buy and rent it out same with enfield hertford road side, but still some way away from what is starting to happen in tottenham especially n15
guy i know just bought a flat in hackney for 750k
worst thing is is fam had a better flat in hackney 15 years ago but let it go for peanuts to move to a "nicer" area
Im sticking to renting for now, wait for this brexit shit
If you have no interest in staying in england till your old age then you can retire somewhere nice in your 40s/50s at worst if you buy right

Now I am seeing it being valued@£750,000 (Silly real silly) by Zoopla and £900,000 by Right Move(so dumb).

Bruh, so long especially cos Im doing it mostly by myself. The amount of times Ive thrown strops and thought 'fuck it im just gonna sell it as it is'
What did your old man do? Full refurb? I pretty much had to take the whole house back to brickwork and start again. The fact Ive only spent 20k is a miracle.

House market in London is a mess. If you can get on it. odo so by all means, its a tidy investment but as far as raising a family & standard of living its long. When I choose to settle down, I am renting my place out and moving out of London. Kent or even as far as the Midlands.
LOL @ spending 750k to live in a flat, these times I am seeing gated detached 5 bedroom properties for 500k+.
Each to their own but I don't see this market slowing down anytime soon.

400k is basically the minimum now for a 1 bed flat in zone 2/3. Actually mad.

Will be worth it in the end though.
Older house has so much more character to it. These new builds are proper boring, don't think I could ever feel at 'home' in one of them.

Cosign what others have said about Tottenham.
That ship has kind of sailed in regards to jumping on. My brother in-law and his gf bought a house there last year for over 600k by St Ann's Road (it was fully refurbished with attic extension already). In contrast my parents sold our home near there for 89k in the mid 90s. I wish they held on to it because I would love to move back but buying a house here is out of my price range.
The changes going on in Tottenham are mad. Loads of young professionals and hipsters about now and new things are opening to cater for them. Styx bar (got Essex heads travelling to go here ffs), 5Miles, hipster coffee shops, art classes in pubs, circus classes, that new wall climbing facility, hipster eating spots and its also one of the highest concentrations for craft breweries in London. Add the new stadium to that with a capacity comparable to Wembly and it will also hold NFL games and concerts there will be loads to do in the area. It's a double edged sword though as the place is being carved up for the rich.
Fuck Labour for what they are doing to the place. They are effectively selling it off at the expensive of cashing in to serve the rich. The HDV (haringey development vehicle) is awful and will see loads of local social housing residents kicked out with barely any ways to get back in. Northumberland Park as it is will be wiped out and prepared for new blood. Doesn't help that they appointed Lendlease who don't have the best track record on deliverying the quota for social housing.
CSB Went on a bit of a rant there.

Lendlease are pieces of shit. They stuffed over a lot of Southwark as well on their social housing promises. Took the council for utter mugs.
The more ruthless people at Southwark jumped ship and joined Lendlease after setting up deals or bringing over info that would favor the company in that borough.
Good article from earlier this year on Vice, about what they did to the Heygate and surrounding area.
