Oxford, UK (PRWeb UK) 30 January 2012
Knight Frank’s Oxford office reported that they had been sold to 13 countries in 12 months. Attracted by the city because of its reputation as a cultural center, to develop the technology sector, the extraordinary education offered and the call of the University colleges, international buyers buy 40% of the main property of Knight Frank, Oxford City in 2011.
Damian Gray, partner at Knight Frank and Head of the headquarters of Oxford, said: London is not the city just to see an influx of foreign buyers dramatic. England international is still considered safe and the economy, in combination with a weak pound, this has led to a significant increase in foreign buyers in Oxford last year

historical time of the economic storm very well, Oxford has always been a popular choice for both national and international buyers. Sales, however, over the past two years, the Oxford office of Knight Frank has been seen for international applicants increased by 50%, with strong demand for homes valued at more than 2.5 million? Marked increase of buyers from Asia and Russia.
Damian adds: We have sold three properties for buyers from Asia, in one case, the buyer only in the country for a limited period so that took them on tour, and at the end of the day they were purchased. As with any who are interested in a school very good and probably the most famous universities, other factors that appeal to Asian buyers are the growth of innovative technology companies and a large number of university hospitals. Shopping also come into the equation, because we are often asked to what extent the Bicester Village Retail Park.
Oxford has often been described by foreign buyers like London without borders. We can not see this perception is changing and will be very interesting to see what would potentially be much more diverse population of the city within 5 to 10 years
