Well the people who are in the game recently wont be investing because of the negative equity. Some cash rich investors will acquire buy to let properties at the fire sale prices and keep them long term. There is still money to be made in UK. Overseas investments can offer good returns provided you do due diligence. Look at the recent Spain property market collapse and rise in Dubai, India. Every day brings new opportunities to gain or loose and any offer to invest should be examined in the light of recent information together with fundamentals and historical returns. Ideally you would be informed by the agent if the area is family area or flatland, where is the nearest schools, parks and other facilities.
