As we launch our third annual Property Investor Report, join us for an in-depth look at our findings and broader housing market trends. Handelsbanken UK Chief Economist James Sproule and Lucian Cook, Head of Residential Research at Savills speak to Sonia Rothwell, Handelsbanken's Strategic Content Lead about how property investors view the UK property market. We’ll discuss which property types are popular, which areas investors are targeting, and in a general election year, how a new government may want to reshape the property sector. It’s a longer episode than usual so we’ve broken it down into bite-sized chapters.
