The popularity of Central London property for investors from overseas is continuing according to recent figures. Of particular interest in the current climate is newbuild residential property in prime London locations. Chesterton Humberts indicates that as much as 65 to 75% of such newbuild homes in the capital have been sold to investors during the last two years. And the numbers of overseas purchasers over the last four years has increased by 56.3% – certainly not something that could have been predicted back in 2009.
