Half of Wandsworth has gone by day 14.
Measured from the day we first saw a Wandsworth listing to the day it left the market, counting the ones still listed rather than only the ones already gone. A quarter had gone by day 6. Because we time from first sight rather than from the agent’s own listing date, the real figure is a little longer than this.
When the price moves, it usually moves down.
Of the price changes we've recorded in Wandsworth, 73% 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.
When one does fall in Wandsworth, it typically drops 6.7%, or about £200 a month, usually within 29 days of us first seeing the listing. Across London the typical fall is 5.7% and takes about 31 days, so Wandsworth runs deeper than the London typical. Based on 166 reductions of 1% or more.

These numbers come from Roost's own pipeline: Wandsworth listings gathered from estate agents across London between 8 March to 5 October 2026. Snapshot taken 5 October 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 Wandsworth. 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.
