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.

FAQs
- What is RICS accreditation?
-
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) is a world leading professional property body with 100,000+ members; it is also a powerful industry regulator. RICS accreditation demonstrates a high standard of surveying education, providing you with the peace of mind and confidence that you are working with a surveyor who has received the best possible professional training and adheres to the highest possible professional standards.
- What do I do after a HomeBuyer Report?
-
Carefully read through the HomeBuyer Report to understand the condition of the property, and do please ask us if anything is unclear. 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.
