they purchased a flat in the same complex in Putney (across the street from Putney Heath). It was near Wimbledon if memory serves.

That's real close to where I live Steve.

London and sub's prices have held up relatively well. Typical SW19 (Wimbledon) flats (apartments) I believe cost around £400K ($650K). For a detached house its more like £2.5M ($4M).

In Canterbury where we have another house prices are a lot cheaper - typically around £450K ($700K) for the average house. Prices dropped a little mostly due to a dry market with no one buying. Some of the local for sale boards however seem to be turning more frequently to sold boards.

Irish house prices seemed to drop a lot more, as I believe was also the case for more northerly homes in England.
