£600,000 can get you this.

etc.

To have a house like the first one in most parts of UK, you'd probably have to have about at least 500k.

To have a house like the third in North london you'd probably have to have about £8Million.

You are not comparing like for like though Will, you need to compare London to New York

yeah it's ridiculous, I was looking at old newspaper the other day in the house and the house next door (Winchmore Hill area) was bought for £140K in 1990's and now worth in the region of £600-800k.

340,000 is not cheap in America. You can't even get that in a year at a straight out of university job here.

Which is also why I haven't moved out of my parents place. Apartments are a bit expensive too.
