Interested in the UK market

Hello BP community

New to this tool and also real estate investing. I am living in Sweden and looking to invest in the UK. Even with the BrExit looming in the air, it is a great time to invest there. It seems that most everyone here is focused on the USA so I am not sure if this is the place for me to be bringing this up. 

I have been studying for about a year now and working on building contacts in the UK like sourcing agents, mortgage brokers, banks, and other players needed for a Power Team. I am getting deals sent to me regularly. The only thing that is holding me back is how to hook up with investors. 

I have a vision of what I want to create, and have developed my strategy with help from the BP book "Rental Property Investing" and from lots of other materials including podcasts and a course I am currently doing in the UK about investing there. 

Does anyone have advice or is interest in the UK market?

@Thomas Kershaw- as a foreigner, with limited capital looking to invest in the UK, you might want to consider crowdfunding options. There are a number of platforms that allow you to buy chunks of pre vetted RE investments- equity and/or debt, in different sectors and strategies. 

I have been doing this for awhile now in the US and more recently in the UK. - (Both very different CF markets.)

This could be a way for you to break into RE investing and diversify your holdings more easily.

In any event, always do the due diligence and run the numbers yourself.

Best of luck.
