Ex-pat & foreign national

UK mortgages for ex-pats and foreign nationals.

Living or earning outside the UK narrows the standard lender pool considerably — we work with the specialist lenders who still say yes.

Most Buy-to-Let mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Being paid in a foreign currency, living outside the UK, or holding foreign national status all change how a mortgage application is assessed — and rule out a large part of the standard high-street market. This is a case where whole-of-market advice matters most, since the right lender genuinely isn't the obvious one.

We regularly arrange finance for ex-pat and foreign national clients, both for buy to let investment and UK residential purchases.

Common questions

Can I get a UK mortgage if I'm paid in a foreign currency?

Yes, though the lender pool is smaller and some will apply a currency 'haircut' to your income — we'll talk you through which lenders are realistic.

Do I need a UK credit history?

It helps, but a lack of UK credit history doesn't rule you out — some lenders specialise in exactly this situation.

Can foreign nationals buy investment property in the UK?

Yes, this is common — we'll match you with lenders who work with your specific residency and income situation.
