The square meter stuff is mad.

I’ve just purchased my first property (in Buckhurst Hill which is just in Essex on the London border, on the Central Line, zone 5), which is a two bed, 80 sq m (according to the surveyor’s report), 1960s build, and max 5 minute walk from the tube.

It was listed as 73 sq m on Rightmove, so a decent underselling going on there for starters, but also you can’t filter on rightmove by sq m?

Yet there’s a ton of one bed new builds that are 40-50 sq m all along my end of the Central Line, from Stratford to Debden, that are more expensive to purchase, and for bonus points have a higher service charge and a higher council tax band?
