The Lambeth figures below come from the ONS private rental market series for April 2025 to March 2026, so they describe rents actually being paid rather than asking prices left on portals. For context, the median registered sale in Balham over the same period was £700,000 across 674 transactions — the number a landlord needs alongside the rent to work out what the yield really is.
