On potential side effect of this whole COVID thing will be the rise in home working. If it really sticks, then we could easily a flattening of the housing market where cheaper areas will become a possibility if you only work from home. The opposite will be true for classic commuter towns.

We are certainly asking that question here - why are we paying so much to live in a location convenient for commuting into London when we don't actually commute into London? We could easily cash out on our ex-council 3 bed semi worth over half a million and get something verynice elsewhere..
