Strategic partnership brings UK homes to Southeast Asian investors

Key leaders of One Global Group and Barratt East London share emerging opportunities to invest in prime Wembley Park Gardens in UK.

Wembley Park Gardens, an apartment complex situated near the iconic and historical Wembley Stadium in the United Kingdom, is being launched in Singapore to stoke the burgeoning interest of Asian Singaporean investors.

The standout project of Barratt London has prompted the forging of a partnership with One Global Group for a strategic marketing and on-ground presence for potential buyers in Southeast Asia.

Speaking to the Singapore Business Review, One Global Group Founder and CEO James Puddle expressed confidence in investor interest in UK homes and applauded Barratt Development for recognising and seizing the opportunity.

“It gives the ability for them to have a sort of on the ground presence here full time, which is really important when you’re buying real estate overseas and halfway around the world,” Puddle said.

On the part of One Global Group, Puddle vowed to provide the reassurance and support that clients need to experience with a specialist team locally available in the region.

In the same interview, Barratt East London Managing Director Stephen Thompson reciprocated the sense of enthusiasm about the partnership, highlighting the benefits of offering real-time discussions and vital London market advice to their customers in Southeast Asia.

“One Global will be able to provide them with the advice of the London market and the product. And we’ll also be able to introduce them to the partner companies around financing and such like,” Thompson told the Singapore Business Review.

As outlined by Puddled, Wembley Park Gardens stands out for its strategic location, impressive connectivity, and significant capital growth potential, making it incredibly popular by global standards.

“Asian-based investors have loved that connectivity is a big consideration,” he said, noting that the first phase is now about 75% sold.

Moreover, Thompson underscored the compelling investment opportunities offered by Barratt’s new developments like Wembley and Hendon Waterside. The Northwest part of London, particularly the Wembley area, is garnering attention from international buyers for its great value and growth prospects.

“It’s in an established residential area, so close to Leading the Leading stadium of the UK Wembley and some fantastic facilities there,” said Thompson as he discussed the long-term value creation potential of the Hendon Waterside regeneration project.

These projects showcase the commitment of both One Global Group and Barratt East London to bringing forward premium, strategically located, and value-adding properties to the market.

In closing the interview, Thompson reiterated the opportunities of growth as a significant pull factor for potential investors.

Like him, Puddle expressed enthusiasm over the collaborative efforts, projects, and strategic initiatives to allow Asians to tap into the UK real estate market.

He said other key business and investment leaders in the region also share their view of a bright future for Southeast Asian investors aiming for lucrative, secure, and valuable investments in the UK.
