MP calls for changes to foreign buyers

19th September 2014

New figures have revealed that 20% of London properties in Kensington and Chelsea, 21% in Westminster, 9% in Camden, 7% in Islington, 12% in Tower Hamlets and 5% in Lambeth are being sold to foreign buyers. The revelations have prompted Labour MP Sadiq Khan, who obtained the data from the BIS, to call for homes to be marketed in the UK before they are opened up to foreign buyers.
