Location Premium

SE27's Location Premium is -9.8%: in CityDataLab's factor model fitted to July 2026, an otherwise identical home (same size, type, age and energy rating) is priced 9.8% less per square metre in SE27 than in a district at the average London district price level.

The model measures a district's location by its median price per m² over the previous twelve months, in standard deviations across London's postcode districts. SE27 sits 0.30 standard deviations below the average district. The Location Premium is the part of a home's price per m² the model puts down to that location; the rest depends on the home itself and on the market as a whole.

How these figures are calculated

Prices are HM Land Registry price paid data for homes sold in SE27, each matched by address to its MHCLG energy performance certificate for the floor area. Price per m² is the price paid divided by that floor area; medians are taken over the twelve months to the month shown, and districts, their postcode area and London are always compared over the same twelve months. Sales without a matched certificate, and non-residential and "other" sales, are not counted. Neighbouring districts are those sharing a border on the postcode district maps by Wikipedia contributors (CC BY-SA 3.0). See how CityDataLab's factor model works.
