Despite the continued uncertainty surrounding Brexit, foreign property buyers are snapping up British property amidst the sterling's continued fall, reports Property Report (15 March 2017). Ironically, Brexit was supposed to be an opportunity for the British to “to take our country back”, yet it has led to an increase in foreign property investors in the UK due to the depreciation of the pound. According to Bernie Morris, President of the UK, Europe, and the Middle East for leading Chinese international property site, Juwai.com, Asian investors wasted no time after the Brexit vote. “With Sterling down, the number of Chinese buyer enquiries made in each of the four weeks after the vote was 30-40 percent higher than in an average week in the year to-date. The week of 4 July was the biggest of the year so far for Chinese UK buying inquiries,” said Morris.
