I am an expat myself living in Singapore. I have a good friend from NY who has lived in Hong Kong for the past 16 years and has permanent residence status there. He owns a home in CT and one in New Zealand (where he plans to retire).
He votes in every election (unfortunately he votes republican).
My wife and I have lived in Asia for the past 12 years and always vote. I know quite a few other American expats and this point about overseas home ownership you bring up is something I have never heard before.
My advice to you is not to worry. It sounds like some Brits are pulling your leg. Good luck with your new home.
Cheers
