Why invest in UK property from Dubai?
The main reason is because you can! Foreigners from all over the world can buy property in the UK with very little to no restrictions. The UAE is included in this. This type of investment is also consistent and holds strong capital appreciation. The British pound is weak meaning investing today is 20% cheaper than 5 years ago. The UK also has a mature real estate market meaning it has some of the strictest property rights in the world. The main reason people invest in the UK property market is due to the supply and demand. With the UK having such strict land development regulations along with the growing population, the demand for UK property is only set to further outgrow the supply. This offers great opportunities for buyers looking to sell or rent their properties from Dubai.

The most popular investment types are set out below
Buy-to-let – One of the most common is a buy-to-let. This is a standard property which is usually a modest house or apartment that is purchased for the purpose of generating income. A property like this can increase in price, however, the primary goal is the money made from the let.
Buy-to-sell – This is simple. Buying a house with the intention of selling it for a higher price. The price increase is usually a result of renovation or development to the property.
Student accommodation – Usually a small unit built for the purpose for students to live in. These investments tend to offer great returns, however, does not experience the same capital growth of that shown in a buy-to-let investment.
