Send us Fan MailFour London boroughs. Fifty-five per cent of the proposed mansion tax. This is where the Budget conversation starts.This week: why the mansion tax would fall on just four postcodes; how Grosvenor's spending across Mayfair and Belgravia shows the core still holding; what one hundred days of the Renters' Rights Act is doing to rental supply; why China's super-rich are hunting for tax counsel as Beijing targets offshore trusts; and where the patient institutional money — Long Harbour's £160m into prime London build-to-rent — is quietly going.The through-line: loud tax noise at the top of the market, patient capital still committing beneath it. Tuesday Bulletin on all majpr podcast platformsThe London Property Podcast Hosted by Farnaz Fazaipour, londonproperty.co.ukIndependent intelligence for serious London property owners and investors.Every episode cuts through the noise with 30 years of prime London market experience  no estate agent spin, no vested interests.

Burnham's Tax Signals, Overseas Capital and a Cooling Prime Market , Tuesday Bulletin, 4 August 2026

Send us Fan MailThis week the market is being moved by a tax that does not yet exist. Speculation over how Andy Burnham will reshape property taxation is already doing the damage the reforms themselves have not. Buyers and sellers are hesitating, and prime London — where transactions are already thin — feels it first. In this week's bulletin: → The "uncertainty tax" freezing decisions before anything is legislated → Why the Fairer Share model unsettles build-to-rent investors → Britain's landlords are internationalising — Indian, Nigerian, Polish and Irish nationals now lead new incorporations → Nearly one in ten UK purchases now draw on funds held overseas → A leasehold consultation that could shift thousands between leaseholder and freeholder → Three bidders circling the £350m Fizzy Living portfolio Six stories, one prime London lens. The London Property Podcast Hosted by Farnaz Fazaipour, londonproperty.co.ukIndependent intelligence for serious London property owners and investors.Every episode cuts through the noise with 30 years of prime London market experience  no estate agent spin, no vested interests.

What Happened to Approved Inspectors? Nicholas Boyarsky on Building Safety Delays in London

Send us Fan MailWith 30 years in prime central London, Farnaz Fazaipour talks to architect Nicholas Boyarsky about the upheaval in building control. The move to the Building Safety Regulator (BSR)  forced private approved inspectors to re‑register and many couldn't, and went into liquidation. The result: a growing BSR backlog of transitional cases and real delays for developers and homeowners. The London Property Podcast Hosted by Farnaz Fazaipour, londonproperty.co.ukIndependent intelligence for serious London property owners and investors.Every episode cuts through the noise with 30 years of prime London market experience  no estate agent spin, no vested interests.

Westminster Feels It First: Prime London's Tax Reckoning Begins

Send us Fan MailThis week the property-tax debate stopped being theoretical and started showing up in prices.Reports put a £247,000 fall on Westminster values as the market absorbs the proposed High Value Property Surcharge — the £800-a-year homes tax — plus talk of a land value tax to replace council tax and stamp duty. Green Street News confirmed prime London is now around 25% below peak, with two-thirds of luxury schemes since 2012 still unsold. The Financial Times found overpriced homes take four times longer to sell, and mortgage rates hit an eleven-month high.All six stories are in this week's Tuesday News Bulletin.

Renters' Rights Act: How the Upfront Rent Ban Is Reshaping Prime London Lettings and Sales

Send us Fan MailTen weeks in, and the Renters' Rights Act is no longer a debate — it's the operating reality. The headline change is simple: a landlord can no longer demand a year, six months, even three months upfront as the price of a tenancy. One month, then you're periodic.The abuse it was written to stop is real, and I've seen it. Not our tenants, not central London — a single mother on a Tesco wage, three children, a landlord insisting on a full year in advance. She raised it through a doorstep lender charging 15% a month. That is not a rental market. That is exploitation dressed as a referencing check, and stopping it is right.But the street is telling a more complicated story. Where landlords used upfront rent to take a chance on someone thin on paper — an international student, a new arrival, a tenant without a UK guarantor — that door is quietly closing. The workaround isn't fairer access. It's guarantor demands and deposit-replacement products, and a harder no for anyone who can't clear them.The other pinch is on the sell side, and it's the one our clients feel most. Plenty of prime owners are sellers if the price is right. Under the new rules, if you let while you wait, you can't run a sale and a let at the same time — and unwinding a tenancy to take a genuine offer is now slow and awkward. If you're a committed long-term holder, you plan around it. If you're an opportunistic seller, it's a real constraint on your optionality.The clean read: the Act fixes an ugly problem at the bottom of the market and hands a planning problem to the top. Both are true at once.What we're watching next: whether the guarantor squeeze hardens, and whether prime landlords start pricing the reduced flexibility into how they hold.The London Property Podcast Hosted by Farnaz Fazaipour, londonproperty.co.ukIndependent intelligence for serious London property owners and investors.Every episode cuts through the noise with 30 years of prime London market experience  no estate agent spin, no vested interests.

Asset-Rich, Cash-Poor: The Wealth Tax Trap for Prime London

Send us Fan Mail 8. Podcast description (Spotify / Apple) This week's London Property News Bulletin: why being asset-rich isn't the same as being able to pay. One in seven UK households now holds a net worth of £1m+, mostly locked in property and pensions — making a wealth tax on paper value a real risk for prime London owners. Plus landlord sales concentrated in London and the South, a £24.4m private facility refinancing a Belgravia freehold as Gulf capital keeps deploying, prime rents edging up under the Renters' Rights Act, new leasehold service-charge protections, and why sellers still pricing to 2021 are watching listings go stale. Independent, founder-led commentary from Farnaz Fazaipour — 30 years in prime central London.The London Property Podcast Hosted by Farnaz Fazaipour, londonproperty.co.ukIndependent intelligence for serious London property owners and investors.Every episode cuts through the noise with 30 years of prime London market experience  no estate agent spin, no vested interests.

The New Owners of Prime London. The Keys Are Changing Hands.

Send us Fan MailThe people being forced to sell prime London right now are not who you think. Not developers. Not buy-to-let landlords. Highly-paid professionals who bought at the peak and can't refinance — facing surveyor downvaluations of 10–17% and prime central assets 40% below 2015 peaks.
