Holding a vast property portfolio seems to be working in his favour for King Charles, who is reported by The Times to have made 26.2 million pounds (AU$50.1m) this year from the property empire he inherited from his mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
Hardly surprising, though, as the portfolio includes palaces, castles, London’s Regent Street, entire villages and duchies through to bed and breakfast cottages along much of the UK coastline.
