17th January 2014

The Sunday Telegraph's Caroline McGhie says that for the property investor, in times of change, it is often sensible to look at where colonies of artists appear as gentrification often follows.

"Artists will often seek out cheap space and like-minded people," says Yolande Barnes, head of global research at Savills. “In London, Shoreditch and Hackney have been revived by creatives and a new wave is moving farther east into Clapton”.
