    AFTER a lull post-Brexit, foreign investors are beginning to buy London residential property again.

    Data isn't firm at this stage, but according to agents, Middle Eastern, Chinese and some European buyers have been taking advantage of a decline in asking prices and sterling's slide. The combined fall has made some properties attractive, agents say.
