Ed McCoy said:
“Despite the uncertainty brought about by the pandemic, London property still represents a fantastic investment opportunity for long-term capital growth. The UK’s strong economic and political foundations have kept property up there as the best performing investment asset over the past 30 years, and we don’t envisage this changing any time soon.”
Many of our Barratt London developments are situated in regeneration areas, which have huge potential for future uplift. For example, our Hendon Waterside development has experienced a 110% capital growth increase in the seven-year period from 2012 to 2019, compared to the London average of 64% over the same timeframe. We also have bespoke packages available for investors to help make the purchasing process as hassle-free as possible, from furnishings to finding tenants.
