Mortgages for UK expats

A UK expat mortgage helps non-UK residents living or working abroad to buy property in the UK. Obtaining a mortgage to buy a home in the UK or an expat buy to let mortgage to purchase a property for rent, can however prove difficult. This is because most High Street mortgage lenders will need to see a recent UK credit file.

Proving your income if you have been working overseas can also be tricky due to fluctuating exchange rates. If you have also not had an address in the UK within the past three years, it can pose even more of a challenge to lenders.

This does not mean that you cannot get a mortgage. But it does make you more of a risk to lend to, which is where we can help!

UK expat mortgages

Unlike many of the High Street lenders, our UK expat mortgage brokers take the time to understand your individual circumstances and use this information to find you the best mortgage for your needs.

As expat mortgage lenders will see you as a risk, you may have to pay a higher rate of interest initially. But you should be able to remortgage to a better rate, if you keep up with your repayments.

A huge thank you to both Jonathan and Gemma for all they have done to assist us in our mortgage application. They've stayed on the case for us throughout the process even though it's been difficult due to lockdown delays etc. but we now have our offer so we're delighted! I've worked with Jonathan for a while now on both business and personal lending requirements and he is always professional, helpful, efficient and will pull out all the stops to find the right product for me, even when I'm not sure what route I want to take! I would have no hesitation in recommending Fosters Financial.

Joanna Everett at Fosters Financial has been absolutely amazing throughout my whole mortgage process. Having had a difficult experience with a broker at another firm Joanna was like a breath of fresh air. Knowledgable, approachable, prompt and professional - I can't thank her enough for turning around my house buying experience!
