Hi all,
Let me get straight to the point of this thread.
When we as a nation voted to leave the European Union, specifically London house prices started to fall. Since then landlords are now unable to remortgage their properties to invest in new houses. China and Singapore investors are DOMINATE the housing market in London, they do own most of the houses located in and around London. The government has now restricted access to them. Meaning they can not purchase London houses.
So what does this mean?
5% of the London housing market has already fallen, and due to most of the investor coming from overseas, it's likely that they will soon be unable to purchase property in London. Current UK landlords are unable to mortgage properties to build their portfolio. This may result in a decline in the house prices in London.
My sources have confirmed its likely due to the fact that the £ is at an all time low.
Shorting the house prices today can you can except to receive 80% return on an investment. Sound good to be true?
Don't ask how or why, however source have confirmed that house prices will gradually fall in the coming years and can expect to see a price decease by November 2016.
Any investors out their that have liquidly I suggest you look to invest in a hedge fund, as it can guarantee a break even.
I will not explain my strategy, however following my current strategy I have already gained healthy returns.
Bare in mind whilst house prices are rising around the UK I am primarily focusing on the London housing market.
Anyone has any questions please feel free to ask.
The ratio between London me the rest of the U.K. Got way out of whack. It will narrow back to long term norm.
Everywhere is falling but London will fall more in relation to the rest of the U.K.Nothing has been fixed since 2008, it was just pushed into the future0 -

When I think of the world and the UK 20 years from now all I can see is growth in the industries most tied to London.
Tourism, art, film, finance, tech, software will all continue to grow that means more jobs in London for those sectors while stoke-on-trent looks on0 -
If you do even basic research online you'll see that other than the very prime central (Mayfair/Kensington/west end and city etc), prices really aren't that different to the rest of the South East. A 1 bed in east London will cost you similar to a 1 bed in Surrey, a 1 bed in west London will cost you similar to that in Buckinghamshire.
People really need to start using the term "South East" instead of London now when referring to regional variations, as there really isn't much difference anymore.0
