Over the past year, this indicator has remained virtually unchanged – an increase of only 0.02%. This suggests that foreign owners are not in a hurry to sell British housing, even despite the increase in taxes.
As Property Wire notes, more than a third of all real estate owned by foreigners (34%) is concentrated in London. Investors are also actively looking at other regions. In particular, it is the South-East of England (there are 17% of houses) and the North-West (16% of objects).
Among the owners the most active owners are citizens of Hong Kong, they own 13.8%. Also in the top countries are Singapore – 7.9%. USA – 6.8%, UAE – 5.9%, China – 5.8%.
At the same time, the list includes only those properties whose owners indicated a postal address outside the UK when registering with the Land Registry.
As the director of Enness Global Isley Robinson noted, the British market remains interesting, despite the state fiscal pressure. At the same time, demand among investors is no longer limited to London.
