By doing precisely the opposite, the Colindale rental market has become a leading driver of growth in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/news\/property-sales-market\/north-west-london-property-market-2023\/\">Northwest London<\/a>. This is an area, close to one of the main routes into London, that has enough land to support multiple developments. After a bumper year which yielded over 60 transactions, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/estate-agents\/colindale\/\">Colindale sales team<\/a> are hungry for more success.<\/p>\n<h2>New builds bring new energy<\/h2>\n<p>New-build apartments in Colindale centre around developments like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/new-homes\/beaufort-park-london\/\">Beaufort Park<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/new-homes\/colindale-gardens-london\/\">Colindale Gardens<\/a>, which have transformed the neighbourhood beyond recognition. These two are the epicentre of a regeneration wave that has expanded along the A5, up to Edgware and down to Hendon. Along with high-quality accommodation, there has been a distinct upgrade in infrastructure and amenities. New retail parks, schools and parks are helping to create a cohesive and lasting sense of community and permanence. Landlords can expect a tenant demographic that is aspirational, hardworking and appreciative of the kind of affordable luxury on offer.<\/p>\n<h2>Hong Kong buyers provide a welcome boost<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/news\/japan-and-china-desks\/rise-in-demand-for-london-property-from-hong-kong-and-chinese-nationals-in-2022\/\">Demand from Hong Kong buyers<\/a>\u00a0has been a massively important factor in Colindale\u2019s continued rise and will always be relevant.

Increased property investment in Colindale has come at exactly the right time for them. Direct transport links into Central London makes commuting easy and a long-established Chinese presence in the borough provides a welcome sense of community.<\/p>\n<h2>Demand exceeds pre-pandemic levels<\/h2>\n<p>We expect demand from overseas investors to strengthen even further, as many look to resume post-pandemic investment plans that had been put on hold.
