Proactive Investors – Brexit holds no fear for First Property boss Habib

“…He sees the current market instability post the UK vote to leave the EU as a big opportunity for a small firm like First Property, and means (for currency reasons) an immediate injection of profits in the short term and later, a chance to buy more UK assets, while prices are under pressure (cheaper).
Longer term is also looking good for the UK market, he reckons…”
