Overseas buyers targeting London

Many investors choose to buy assets outside of their home country. The goal is usually to put money into properties that have the best chance of providing healthy returns in the future. London has been a popular destination many times over the years. In fact there are thousands of assets in the hands of overseas investors. The latest data showcases which Boroughs have been the most popular with them.

Top of the list is the City of Westminster. According to Land Registry data, an incredible 10,938 properties here are owned by companies from overseas. The area is popular because it is Central and has some of the best amenities on its doorstep, including tourist hotspots and Tube stations.

The second most popular area is Kensington and Chelsea. Here 5,847 properties are owned by companies from outside the UK. This is another prime market with lots of incredible amenities, including luxury shops and the iconic Hyde Park.

Camden rounds out the top three with 2,363 properties. That is an admirable number for a market that is not at the same heights as the prime spots above. However, it is yet another tourist hotspot with lots of great amenities. That is why it is such an attractive location.

Outside of London

While many overseas investors focus solely on the capital, there are other locations where they can invest. The South East of England has several popular destinations but the North West has the edge in terms of numbers. For example 1,770 properties in Manchester are owned by non-UK companies. Liverpool is not far behind with 1,516. Both areas are very popular cities with a lot of culture.

The main reason some investors look outside of London is oversaturation. Because the capital has seen such high demand in the past, prices are high and there is less potential for long term gains. However, locations like Manchester and Liverpool have the chance for prices to grow even more in the future. This could happen as more overseas investors target them.
