London, the capital of the united kingdom (UK), has a higher proportion of indian property owners than english people.
 
According to London-based residential developer Barratt london, "Indians make up the largest group of property owners in london, represented by those who have lived in the UK for generations, NRIs, foreign investors, students, and families who come to the UK for education."
 
Barratt london observed that "English and Pakistani people are next in number," and that indian investors, who live in both india and the UK, are willing to pay between GBP 290,000 and GBP 450,000 for a one-, two-, or three-bedroom house in London.

Indian investors who want to buy real estate in london and participate in the steady, long-term real estate market are putting in a lot of demand. The majority of our goods are sold to residential clients in the UK who purchase and occupy these houses outside of london, Stuart Leslie, director of international Sales and Marketing at Barratt london, told Financial Express.
 
According to The Current, 30% of purchasers in london are from outside markets, while 30% of sales are to pure investors, or those looking to rent the apartments.
 
"The proportion of indian homebuyers, who account for 7-8% of the foreign market participants, has increased this year. Instead of speculating and searching for business, we are actually responding to the source of demand," Stuart Leslie stated.
 
10% of India's UHNWIs want to buy a new house in 2022, according to a Knight Frank poll, and they would rather invest in domestic real estate than properties in the US, UK, or UAE.
 
Because it is a center for education and finance and one of the main international entrance points for investors, london is popular with indian homebuyers and investors.
 
Additionally, since the cost per square foot is around the same in london and Mumbai, and because the two cities have similar legal systems that facilitate transactions, it makes sense for indian homebuyers to consider the london real estate market.
 
"The market fundamentals and confidence, as well as the history of indians investing in london real estate, are the reasons why indians feel at ease purchasing real estate. since the current market presence and exchange rates, they are ready to invest in the UK residential markets since they are receiving higher returns. Compared to the uae or india, it is a comparatively safer market," he stated.
 
Due to people's need to relocate fast following the epidemic, there is now a demand for completed or almost completed constructions. Real estate in Barratt, london, typically costs between GBP 390,000 and GBP 450,000.

"People typically identify this pricing with tier-II or tier-III locations rather than the london market. Because of this, more people choose to purchase real estate in london than in the UK's smaller cities," he added.
