AMERICAN BILLIONAIRE'S $122 MILLION CONFIDENCE SIGNAL: Is The London Luxury Real Estate Market Bursting Alive Once Again?
London, UK - 22nd January 2019, 21:20 GMT
#3 Carlton Gardens: Is this the $122 million Canary in the Mineshaft?
1. What does Illinois' richest man know about the future of post-Brexit London and Great Britain's prospects in the near future that main stream media and our establishment may be denying?
2. Interesting to note at the start of the Davos summit in Switzerland that the London luxury real estate market has not only come alive spectacularly but there are still buyers for super prime real estate in London;
3. Something major is finally afoot in the London luxury real estate market hot on the heals of other good news:
- Majority of UK CEOs expect to boost headcount in 2019;
- Record rise in number of graduate jobs on offer in 2019;
- London office take-up at 4 year high;
- Commercial property investment at 4 year high;
4. The 50 year old American hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin has bought the London mansion for 95 million pounds sterling ($122 million) -- UK's most expensive home purchase in nearly a decade -- previously the war time residence of Charles de Gaulle, home of three British prime ministers, and also used by the British intelligence agency MI-6;
5. Griffin is worth 8.8 billion dollars and runs hedge fund Citadel from Chicago which handles more than 27 billion dollars in assets and he has collected a vast portfolio of luxury properties worth half a billion dollars from Chicago to New York and from Palm Beach to Miami in Florida;
6. Griffin's super prime new luxury home in Carlton Gardens, just a stone's throw from Buckingham Palace, is an 1820s Grade II-listed building designed by John Nash with circa 19,000 square feet and sold at 5,000 pounds per square foot;
7. We are delighted to offer private off-market exclusive portfolios of super prime luxury real estate in London, UK and across Europe ranging from 100 million to 250 million sterling and commercial properties in London and across Europe ranging from 100 million to 500 million sterling. We also have off-market hotel opportunities ranging from 100 million sterling to 1.5 billion sterling.
8. We are working closely with a number of inspiring and innovative #PropTech developers and providers with more than a million square feet of co-working space – unrivalled technology and connected communities – already deployed in London within #FinTech and #InsurTech alongside global financial institutions and household brands.
