US investment boom could lift London house prices by £31,000 over the next two years

The latest data insight from Enness Global has revealed that record-breaking levels of US investment into the UK could help revive London’s weary property market, boosting average house prices by as much as £31,000 over the next two years – £17,000 more than current forecasts predict.

£150bn US capital influx poised to revitalise London’s property market

During the recent US State Visit, a wave of transatlantic investment commitments totalling over £150 billion was announced, encompassing some of the world’s most influential firms.

These include a £100 billion investment from Blackstone, £3.9 billion from logistics and life sciences giant Prologis, £1.5 billion from defence technology firm Palantir, and £150 million from Amentum, alongside a string of high-value pledges from Microsoft, Google, Nvidia, Salesforce and CitiGroup.

This unprecedented inflow of capital into infrastructure, data, energy, and innovation sectors represents a powerful long-term stimulus for the London economy.

From investment to housing growth

According to Enness Global’s analysis, the knock-on impact of this US investment on the capital’s property market could be considerable – supporting job creation, attracting global talent, and lifting economic confidence at a time when London’s housing market remains subdued.

Based on aspects such as employment to house price elasticities and large city price variations, Enness Global estimates that this wave of US investment could deliver an additional 1% to 3% uplift over baseline growth in London property values over the next 12 to 24 months.

Given the capital’s current average house price of £565,567, and the baseline forecast of £579,518 by August 2027, Enness Global forecasts that US-driven economic momentum could potentially push the average value to approximately £596,904 – an increase of £31,337, representing a £17,386 premium above baseline projections.

This anticipated boost reflects the broader benefits of sustained foreign investment: stronger employment, rising business confidence, and inflows of international talent, all within a city still facing chronic undersupply of new housing stock.

Growing US appetite for UK property finance

Enness Global has also recorded a marked rise in engagement from US-based clients seeking access to UK property finance.

The firm’s internal data shows that US contact enquiries to the Enness Global website have increased by more than 16% over the latest quarter, while the number of new users visiting the site is up by almost 40% year-on-year.

This sustained growth in US interest underscores a tangible uptick in international appetite for UK property investment and financing solutions, as American buyers and investors look to capitalise on favourable currency conditions, high-yield opportunities, and long-term stability in London real estate.

Islay Robinson, CEO of Enness Global, commented:

“London’s property market has always been a barometer for global confidence, and this latest surge of US investment into the UK has the potential to be a turning point.

The scale and diversity of these commitments – spanning technology, energy, finance, and defence – will not only strengthen the wider economy, but also filter directly into the housing market through job creation, inward migration, and renewed investor appetite.

Such notable strategic foreign investment can offset domestic headwinds and for London in particular, where supply remains tight and sentiment subdued, this could mark the beginning of a meaningful property market recovery.

At Enness Global, we’re already seeing increased engagement from international buyers and investors positioning themselves ahead of the next growth cycle. The combination of stabilising inflation, a potentially softer interest rate environment, and this powerful influx of capital ensures that London remains one of the most compelling global markets.”
