Ilford sits in the London Borough of Redbridge, covering IG1 and the surrounding IG postcodes, taking in central Ilford, Gants Hill, Newbury Park, Seven Kings and Goodmayes. The Elizabeth Line at Ilford, Seven Kings and Goodmayes has sharpened commuter demand, and the market mixes period terraces, purpose-built flats and conversions. First-time buyer and buy-to-let activity are both strong, with an active flats market around the town centre. Neighbouring Seven Kings and Goodmayes each have their own dedicated page.
