Buying in Bexley

Located in southeast London just south of the River Thames, Bexley is the second cheapest London borough, but ranking second for safety and low crime levels, and third for standard of living. With over 100 parks and green spaces, Bexley is also one of the greenest areas of London.

There’s excellent connectivity to the city via railway, road and bus services, and the arrival of Crossrail is hotly anticipated, expected to propel the area forward and push property prices upwards to the tune of 45%!

Bexley is undergoing extensive investment and regeneration, with the aim of attracting more jobs and businesses into the area. The main geographical focus is Bexley Riverside, including Erith, Crayford, Thamesmead and Abbey Wood.

According to Rightmove, Bexley’s overall average property price is £370,456, cheaper than nearby Greenwich, Bromley and Lewisham. Most property sales last year involved semi-detached properties.

What do I do after a HomeBuyer Report?

The best-case scenario is that there are no unexpected defects and only a few minor issues, meaning you can proceed with confidence. If a serious underlying problem has been identified that could potentially be costly/lengthy to rectify, we may recommend a Specific Defect Report or other further investigation carried out by relevant professionals.

I commissioned Able Surveyors for a Level 3 survey on a property I was close to purchasing. On the surface, there were no obvious red flags — but Able's report identified over £20,000 worth of required work, including a serious structural issue with a chimney breast. What impressed me was the quality of the reporting. These weren't vague or inflated concerns — each issue came with clear reasoning and a proper explanation of why it mattered. Nothing felt like padding. Because of their thoroughness, I made the difficult but right decision to pull out of the purchase, and I have no doubt that saved me from a very costly mistake. The service from start to finish was excellent. The person who handled my enquiries and questions throughout the process was brilliant — patient, knowledgeable, and responsive. I'm sorry I can't recall her name, but she deserves a mention. I'd recommend Able Surveyors without hesitation. A good survey isn't just about ticking boxes — it's about protecting you from the wrong decision. That's exactly what this one did.

Great experience with Able Surveyors. Dean Davidson carried out our Level 3 survey and did an excellent job. The report was clear, detailed, and focused on the things that actually matter. He explained structural points, risks, and repair priorities in a straightforward way that made the whole process easier to navigate. Professional, thorough, and reliable. Would definitely recommend Dean and Able Surveyors to anyone buying a property.

The team were very efficient and gave a detailed review of the property we are looking to purchase. They assisted with questions beforehand to give us comfort on the process. The report itself was of top quality with pictures and narrative and recommendations on how to proceed with the points raised. Recommend the team 100%.

I had a level 3 survey report carried out on a 1940s property. The report arrived the next day and was very thorough and easy to understand. I had some follow-up questions. Jack, the surveyor, was very approachable and got back to me quickly with helpful advice. I would definitely recommend Able Surveyors and Jack.
