Tower Hamlets's housing market in 2026

The average property in Tower Hamlets sold for £554,410 over the past year, down 9% on the year before and 13% below the borough's 2021 peak of £638,375, one of the larger corrections among inner-London boroughs. Flats dominated sales at £515,787 on average, with terraced houses around Bethnal Green and Whitechapel averaging £871,266 and semi-detached homes at £813,000.

Canary Wharf's large apartment stock means many Tower Hamlets mortgages are leasehold flat purchases, worth bearing in mind when sizing life cover. Service charges and ground rent on top of the mortgage are a real ongoing cost a policy should account for if the worst happens.
