For a long time now the minimum mortgage available for non-residents looking to buy property in the UK was £100,000 but we can now arrange mortgages from just £30,000.
The previous minimum property value was £150,000 and that has reduced to £80,000. This opens up the market to people who were previously excluded and those looking to invest in a portfolio of cheaper properties for rental yields.
This is only available to British nationals in accordance with the lender’s rules. Other relevant information is as follows:
- Minimum loan size £30,000
- Minimum property value £80,000
- Available for both residential and buy to let properties
- No early repayment charges from day one

Finding a property for investment can be times consuming so if you do not want to go to the trouble of doing this yourself, I also deal with companies that source developments for investors, so please ask for an introduction.
