| You CAN afford to buy in London, with London Living Rent Keen to get a foot on the property ladder, but struggling to save up for a deposit while shelling out London rent prices? We hear you. Introducing London Living Rent. Funded by the Mayor of London, they offer a different way to get onto the property ladder... even if you don't think you can afford it. L&Q's London Living Rent homes offer seriously reduced rental rates — sometimes up to 50% off market value — for current renters who want to buy a home, giving you the chance to put some money aside for that elusive deposit. Then, when you're in a position to do so, you can buy the property you already love — no upheaval, no moving costs, no faff — or any other home that's caught your eye. All properties boast open-plan kitchens and fully-integrated appliances, so you can move straight in. So, where can you find L&Q's London Living Rent homes then? They're currently available all over the capital, including in Walthamstow, Newham, Barking & Dagenham. We especially like the look of the 1-2 bedroom apartments at Queen's Quarter in Croydon (this year's London Borough of Culture!) Each one has its own private balcony, with some overlooking leafy Queen's Garden. The development is just a short walk from local gems like Boxpark and mere moments from East Croydon station, which makes getting into central London a breeze!
