| Apparently some of the big buyers of properties around London these days are Chinese, Russian and Arab based. They buy entire blocks of new apartments with their laundered cash and as you can imagine the developers love it. The cynical side of me thinks this is the kind of client developers build for, rather than the idea of creating affordable family based, young professionals and key worker (remember them) homes. Are these properties ever rented out or resold? No, that's too much hassle. They just remain empty having their lights kept on whilst making certain areas nothing short of ghost towns. |
