If you can't afford/find a property you like in the area of London you work, have a look for rail stations in the area you work, with speedy train lines (I live in Kent, you can get into London/Kings Cross in 16 minutes which is a lot better than taking the tube across London from an area you live in to where you work). This might be one way of buying a property you like with easyish access to work, at a more affordable price. Also consider what you will be paying for a lease on a flat. Monthly service charges are obviously quite high. A house in an outer area might be more affordable.0
