Kudos to Ross Clark of the Telegraph for this piece of investigative journalism into how the market has treated the riverside's glass palace developments. Focussing on Canary Riverside's Eaton House, St George Wharf's Bridge House and Riverside West's Compass House, the story is something like a complete reverse of the London property story elsewhere. It's not the big, expensive penthouses that have been performing, but the smaller, mid-priced apartments. Using Land Registry figures, the article even points to losses on some million pound-plus penthouses. Somebody lost £60,000 in just 13 months on 141, Eaton House; while 146, Bridge House shed a terrifying £810,000 in three and half years. Clark's advice is sensible - buy small, and try to buy off-plan at a discount, if you're looking at a new London riverside development.
