I'm not sure about the usefulness of that FT link. Firstly, it's from January, and I suspect prices have changed (and in SE22 gone up) since then. Secondly, the average per square foot price may well be accurate as a mathemaical mean, but probably not useful for guide prices. I doubt you will find a 3 bed period terrace (which I would guess is the most popular property type in ED) anywhere in SE22 for the equivalent of ?380 psf.
Maybe stuff like close proximity to St. Johns, and the station adds up but Adys Rd. is hardly a quiet and peaceful road. If it was a semi or on a more quiet road or had an amazing garden it would be worth nearer to that. It would cost at least 50k to put an extra bedroom and bathroom in it so surely the price is more 650k. 4 beds round here are going for just over 700 I believe.

You can't really use house prices in East Dulwich as a basis to make generalised assertions about the housing situation (whether there may be some truth in them or not). SE22 is an expensive place by SE London standards, because people who have money, or access to credit despite the current state of the mortgage market, are willing to spend it. There are plenty of places within a few miles of SE22 where property costs half as much - literally.

Likely to be under-priced in that case. But it can all change when the survey takes place and depends on how much deposit someone has.

    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
