We said

Thank you for your enquiry about overseas ownership of housing in the UK. 

We do not have data that would answer your query. 

For England and Wales, HM Land Registry registers ownership of land and property so may be able to help with your enquiry.  

Registers of Scotland perform a similar responsibility for Scotland and Land & Property Services perform a similar responsibility for Northern Ireland.
