CONTACTStill paying thousands each month in rent? Wondering whether buying in London is actually achievable? Looking for somewhere that feels more lifestyle upgrade than compromise?
For many renters across Clapham, Battersea, Richmond and Putney, the idea of owning your own home in London can still feel slightly out of reach. But more professionals are beginning to question whether continuing to spend £1,800–£2,400 a month on rent still makes sense long term.
At Twickenham Square, buyers are finding a different path into home ownership. One that combines modern apartment living, strong London connections and the kind of South West London lifestyle many renters already love.
For many first time buyer London searches, the biggest challenge is confidence rather than ambition.

That’s why more renters are starting to explore First Home Schemes London buyers can realistically access.
