Location premium can dwarf building price

New research by Direct Line has revealed a huge gulf between the average price of building a home and its market value. It calculated that in London, while the average price of a three-bed house is £647,571, the price to rebuild it is just £205,000, meaning there is a 216% premium for the land it stands on and its location. Brighton, Bristol, Edinburgh and Norwich had the highest premiums after the capital. It was lowest in the North East.
