Investing in the UK Property market

[Echo Shimix]

Hey guys, I am new to BP and I live in the UK. 

Anyone here have experience investing in property in the UK?

PS. I aim to adapt the US strategies to the UK market, I just wanted to ask anyway. 

Thanks

Seriously, the one thing many U.S. investors stumble over is the fact that in the U.K. (at least in London metroplex) many property transactions are not fee simple transactions (which is what we are used to) but are in fact the equivalent of very long term leases.  Not sure how or whether this will impact the adoption of our strategies over there, but it is a factor to keep in mind as you explore doing so.
