FAQs

Which developments will be showcased during the event in Delhi?

Beautiful apartments with waterfront views will be showcased at two new developments: Grand Union in Wembley, North-West London, and Reading Riverworks in Reading. These developments are located in sought-after neighbourhoods and offer excellent transport links, enhancing their rental appeal and long-term value growth potential, making them ideal for both personal use and investment.

What advantages do waterfront properties offer investors?

Homes located along a river or canal offer a mix of lifestyle benefits and solid investment potential, as they are in short supply. They often achieve higher values and steady capital appreciation over time. They are particularly popular with professionals and overseas tenants, which helps maintain strong rental demand and lower vacancy levels. Many waterfront locations are part of wider regeneration areas, bringing better infrastructure and neighbourhood appeal that can further support future price growth.

Do these developments have good access to leading universities?

Yes, both projects are well-connected to quality academic institutions via convenient transport links. Grand Union is within roughly 30 minutes of major London universities, including UCL, the University of London, the University of Westminster, Central Saint Martins, the London School of Economics and King’s College London. Reading Riverworks also offers easy access to the University of Reading and the University of Oxford.

What can participants get out of this event?

Investors and self-use buyers will be able to view and reserve units in popular waterfront developments while getting direct guidance from UK property specialists. People who come can get personalised advice on price, taxes, legal issues, rental schemes, and ownership arrangements, whether they are buying to invest or to help their children study or work in the UK. This tailored approach helps consumers make smart, confident choices aligned with their long-term goals.

What will be the flow and agenda of this event?

Instead of a typical exhibition, this event will include intimate one-on-one meetings with UK property experts. This personalised approach ensures conversations are focused on specific projects, budgets, and schedules, so everyone can get advice tailored to their needs.

Who is the event intended for?

The sessions are great for both investors and end users alike. This includes families looking for a place for their kids to live while they study or work in London, those considering buying a second home, and people looking to earn rental income from UK property by renting it out long-term.

What is the construction status of the featured developments?

The showcase includes a mix of projects that are close to completion and those currently under construction. This provides buyers with flexibility to choose options that suit their preferred timeframe, whether they are looking for near-term occupancy, phased completion or longer-term growth potential.

Will there be support for payment schedules and transferring funds overseas?

Yes, the team will explain typical payment structures involved in UK property purchases and outline the practical steps for transferring funds from India. This guidance helps buyers plan ahead and manage the transaction process smoothly without unexpected complications.
