Half of Newham is gone in 27 days.
Measured from the day we first saw a Newham listing to the day it left the market. A quarter lasted 18 days or fewer; a quarter were still there after 54. Because we time from first sight rather than from the agent's own listing date, the real figure is a little shorter than this.
When the price moves, it usually moves down.
Of the price changes we've recorded in Newham, 83% were reductions. Asking rents here soften after listing more often than they firm up, which is worth remembering before you treat the number in the ad as final.

These numbers come from Roost's own pipeline: Newham listings gathered from estate agents across London between 8 March to 19 June 2026. Snapshot taken 17 July 2026.
It's what agents are marketing, not a census. It skews toward flats and toward the agents whose sites we watch, so it describes the market you'd actually meet while searching, not every home in Newham. Medians throughout, because a handful of prime listings pull an average upward and tell you nothing about your search.
Rents below £500 or above £15,000 a month are set aside as data errors or ultra-prime outliers. Where a figure would rest on too few listings to trust, we leave it blank rather than guess.
