The local market
Selling in Balham
The Heaver Estate, the Nightingale Triangle and the roads around Wandsworth Common and Tooting Bec Common are among the most sought-after family streets in south-west London. Closer to the high road, buyers find conversion flats and smaller terraces, with the Northern line and Southern trains from Balham station.
Because so many Balham houses are similar in layout, price and presentation decide which ones sell. A house that hasn't been extended, or one that has been extended without the paperwork to show it, often needs a different approach.
Why homes stick
