Case Study: UK Expat in Dubai Secures Self-Build Mortgage with Liquid Expat Background

Self Build Mortgage Finance Case Study

Mel W, a UK expatriate residing in Dubai for over seven years, always dreamed of building a custom home back in the UK. With plans to return home within the next two years, she wanted to start the construction process so her family could move into their dream home upon their return. However, Mel faced significant challenges in securing a self-build mortgage due to her expatriate status and her income paid outside the UK.

The Challenge

Securing a mortgage for a self-build project is already a complex process. For expatriates, the challenge is magnified due to factors such as:

• Income earned in a foreign currency
• A lack of recent UK credit history
• Different regulations and documentation requirements

Mel needed a financial solution that understood her unique situation and could provide the specialised support necessary for expatriates.
