Solving The Green Homes Problem

Knight Frank
About this episode

This week Patrick Gower is joined by Global Head of Research Liam Bailey and Global Wealth Analyst Flora Harley to explore why solving housing's pollution problem could be a step too far for the government and how green mortgages might revolutionise lending.


We also ask; where are the world's billionaires looking to buy their next homes? How has London leapfrogged rivals as the top destination for ultra-high-net-worth seeking new locales? And, finally, what impact are ultra-low interest rates having on super prime property markets across the globe?


Intelligence Talks is a podcast from the Research Team at Knight Frank. Every Friday we'll be bringing you the latest insights on property market trends and forecasts, along with expert analysis from industry leaders.
