flag London’s luxury home prices fell 4% year-on-year in October 2025 due to tax uncertainty and reduced buyer confidence.

flag London’s prime property prices dropped 4% year-on-year in October 2025, the sharpest decline since 2021, amid growing speculation over a potential mansion tax on homes worth £1.5 million or more. flag Knight Frank attributes the drop to uncertainty around proposed taxes, including a possible 1% annual levy on properties above £2 million, which could deter high-end buyers and reduce market activity. flag Demand for luxury rentals has surged, while homeowners, especially those over 55, are delaying downsizing plans. flag The government is also considering doubling top council tax bands, affecting over 150,000 homes. flag Experts warn that without sufficient later-living housing and clear policy, the market could face prolonged pressure.
