I don't know a lot about Argentina, except that it is a cheaper place to live than Uruguay. Uruguayans go across the River to shop in Buenos Aires, and the Argentinians go across the river in the other direction to keep their money in Uruguayan banks.
Argentinians don't want their finances to go through an Argentine bank and often properties are purchased in US Dollars, hand carried into the closing (That's right, folding money, counted out on the table.)
Buenos Aires is a dynamic city with much to offer. Everyone that I know who has been there speaks highly of it.
There are currently strikes going on, by the farmers refusing to deliver food to the cities. But it seems to me like strikes aren't all that unusual, and everyone just works around them.
Prices probably look very attractive to anyone paying in pounds or euros.
It should be easy enough to find an expat forum of Brits living in BA, and they would certainly know what the real estate situation is there.
