The Croydon market
Croydon is outer London’s perennial value story: a genuine town-centre office and retail core, fast trains to Victoria and London Bridge, and flat prices that undercut almost everywhere north of it.
The market splits between town-centre apartment blocks — including office-to-resi conversions — and suburban terraces toward Addiscombe and South Norwood.
The investor angle
The strongest pure-yield numbers in this list: indicative 5.5–6.5% gross on town-centre flats. Stock selection matters — favour blocks with sound management and avoid over-supplied conversion towers.
