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.

HMO Mortgages for Expats testimonial

­ I would like to take the opportunity to express my sincere thanks for the superb service and support I have received from Liquid Expat Mortgages in organising my HMO mortgage in the UK.

We were very happy with Liquid Expat Mortgages. After living in Spain and hoping to buy a U.K. property we were advised by most that we wouldn’t qualify for a U.K. mortgage. Never the less LEM said they could help and we were supported from start to finish with a good mortgage offer on the table. Liam and Claire were fantastic throughout the whole experience and never hesitated to offer advice and support as we needed. We can’t thank them enough for all their help and time spent with us even to the end where Claire was helping our solicitor to ensure all would go through on completion day with the lender. Our solicitor was also recommended by LEM and was also fantastic. Our sale completed smoothly on the day and with no issues. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you again for everything.

We have been using the services of Liquid Expat for over six years and cannot recommend them enough. The level of broker professionalism, expat mortgage knowledge, and, most of all--transparent communication--is exceptional. As expats, it's even more challenging trying to maneuver the requirements and products in the UK market; additionally, the current climate has made it even more difficult. Liquid Expat will help you with this! To give some shoutouts--John Squires is always our first point of contact, helping to identify the best products available, and his knowledge speaks for itself. Then there's the incredible duo of Claire Aspin and Liam Saul--they are absolutely brilliant. So patient, thorough, and attentive to all of the details that any non-trained eye might miss. Claire and Liam were invaluable to our recent remortgage. We have, and will continue to, recommend Liquid Expat to anyone seeking the highest level of expat mortgage advice. Thank you!

Nicole Gallagher of Liquid Mortgages was very professional and knowledgeable in sourcing a lender for me to re-finance my flat in London. she got me the offer letter from the bank by coordinating to obtain all the required documents in a very efficient manner. I was happy with the offer & how Nicole dealt wit my case and would recommend her to my friends and family. Nicole went above and beyond to assist me as a client, when we hit a road block due to solicitors not being in a position to complete in time before the finance offer expired. but Nicole worked tirelessly to obtain an extension on the finance offer to make the completion successful. this was impressive considering the interest rates were going up and a new offer would have costed me thousands of pounds more. Nicole is an asset to any organisation and highly recommend her ability and excellent customer service.

Hi. My mortgage application was handled by Ms Nicole Gallagher, and she was absolutely brilliant. Any questions I had were answered straight away with a full explanation. Throughout the process, I was kept in the loop and advised on the best course of action. Even my solicitor has praised Nicole for her efficency and super quick responses. On two occasions, the solicitor of the seller questioned my intention to buy the property. Nicole replied and defended me and set him straight. The email was so well written that I couldn't have said it any better myself. Professional but straight the point! Nicole is excellent at what she does and did a brilliant job in handling my application. She was very efficient and always replied to my emails straight away. I will definitely be recommending Liquid Expats to my friends and suggest they ask for Nicole to handle their application. If in the future we decide to buy another property, I will definitely be asking for Nicole and only to handle my application. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Nicole for all her guidance and support. Her attention to detail and her professional advice. I feel she went above and beyond in making me feel part of the process by keeping me informed at each stage. She is a credit to your company and has set the bar very high! Thank you Nicole. Wishing you all the best for the future. Mr Wahid Fazil 5 Fountain Park Westhoughton Bolton BL5
