Why get a mortgage in the UK?
Over many years the UK property market has established a global reputation for stability attracting overseas buyers as well as UK Expats looking to keep a foothold in the UK. Even when UK expats move abroad, many of them want to retain their UK property as they know the value of it and realise it might not only deliver rental income but over time deliver strong capital growth. However, it does add an additional layer of complication when it comes time to remortgage a property.
Without being physically present in the UK, it can be difficult to attend meetings or seek out the best expat mortgage deals for yourself. Liquid Expat Mortgages can handle this on your behalf, using our extensive lender network.
Many high street lenders don’t offer expat mortgages because they can’t easily credit search applicants who aren’t in the UK. They also don’t have the infrastructure to help process your application and as such you could waste a substantial amount of time and money without really getting anywhere. That’s why we’ve become the No1 specialist mortgage broker for expats and foreign nationals.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We came back to the UK in July 2022 after almost 20 years abroad and discovered that, as an "expat", borrowing for a new home is very difficult. Liquid Expat made it possible and we have just moved into our new home. They are specialists in the field and we would recommend them to all expats needing a mortgage.
