Led by Matt Lenzie, ex-Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland, we arrange commercial mortgages, bridging finance, and development finance across Canary Wharf and the wider Tower Hamlets area.
Commercial property in Canary Wharf trades at a significant discount to central London, offering attractive entry points for investors, with retail rents of £40-60 per square foot and office space from £35-55 per square foot. Across Tower Hamlets, average commercial yields stand at 4.2%, with Canary Wharf assets often exceeding this for smaller lot sizes and secondary pitches. Five-year capital growth of 15.8% across the borough signals sustained investor and occupier confidence in the area's trajectory.
Canary Wharf is seeing incremental investment as property owners refurbish existing stock to meet modern tenant expectations and EPC requirements. Wood Wharf development is supporting wider area improvement and lifting market confidence. Mixed-use proposals combining ground-floor commercial with upper-floor residential continue to come forward, supported by strong end values in the area.
