In the late 90s my gran used to have a house in zone 1, she sold it to move with my parents up to York despite being absolutely loaded and didn't need to sell it. Even at the time my mum was trying to convince her not to. I don't think I'd even want to live there but the rental income alone would be amazing.

This is where we wish we all had family that bought in London 40 years ago...
In 1990 my parents had considered buying a cheapish townhouse in Angel Islington, decided against it as my dad hated London. Fool.
