American investors deployed \u00a313.6bn into the UK\u2019s commercial property market in 2024, more than double the amount spent in 2023<\/h2>\n

American investment accounted for a record 33% share of all investment into the UK in 2024, according to a new report from the British Property Federation (BPF)<\/a> and CoStar.<\/p>\n

In 2024, the flow of capital from the US far outpaced inward investment of all other nations combined, with nearly half of deals valued over \u00a3100m completed by a US buyer.<\/p>\n

The report analysed American investment over the last four years<\/h3>\n

The first annual report from the BPF and CoStar Group quantifies the scale of investment from overseas since 2021 into a range of property asset classes and found that over the last four years,\u00a0 American investors have bought \u00a349.7bn\u00a0 worth of UK commercial properties, dwarfing acquisitions from elsewhere in the world.<\/p>\n

American private equity buyers have been particularly active in the UK market<\/a>, with four of the five largest transations in 2024 (amounting to \u00a35bn) involving Blackstone, Starwood Capital, KKR and CD&R-backed Motor Fuel Group.<\/p>\n

London remains a focal market, but regional investment in commercial property is growing<\/h3>\n

Private equity was primarily investing in hotels and mixed-use portfolios in 2024, but an uptick in larger transactions in London\u2019s West End towards the end of the year indicates a growing appetite for prime offices.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The South East remain the preferred regions for inward investment from overseas, but the maturing of the Build-to-Rent (BTR) sector and demand for student housing is driving investment into the North West. Together with the West Midlands, the North West has drawn more foreign capital than other regions (outside of London and the South East) over the past several years.<\/p>\n

The industrial and logistics sector received the majority of overseas investment between 2021 and 2024, accounting for a quarter (24%) of all overseas investment into the UK.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Housing, offices and retail developments are all enjoying American investment<\/h3>\n

Melanie Leech, chief executive, British Property Federation, comments, \u201cThe UK real estate sector is a pre-eminent destination for global capital and we are delighted to launch with CoStar, our first annual report setting out the origin and scale of investment from overseas across the UK. We hope that these reports over time will build a picture of investment trends, and showcase the contribution of the sector to the economy and its wider role in boosting economic growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt may not be surprising to see that the US tops the list this time for overseas investment given that US investors have been instrumental in the growth of the Build-to-Rent sector, providing more than a hundred thousand modern, professionally-managed homes, but also play an important role in the market for offices, logistics and, increasingly, retail.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grant Lonsdale, senior director of Market Analytics, CoStar Group, said, \u201cOur comprehensive building and transactions data used to compile this report reveals an array of notable international investment trends into UK commercial property. One that is especially noteworthy is that although London attracts the lion\u2019s share of cross-border funds flowing into the country, other regions are catching up as investors increasingly target the living and industrial sectors.”<\/p>\n
