In cities like London, parking spaces are scarce and highly valued, often seen as a premium feature

A dedicated parking space increases tenant demand and makes your property more appealing to renters with cars

Homes with parking often sell faster and can achieve a higher resale price compared to those without

If your tenant doesn’t need it the space can often be rented separately providing extra income flexibility

Where parking isn’t viable, features like cycle storage or car-club access can still attract modern urban renters

If budget allows, adding a parking space is a strong long-term asset boosting both rental appeal and future value
