If you’re looking to invest in UK rental property and wish to take advantage of historically low interest rates, what are your options for borrowing money as an expat still living outside the UK?
The pound’s weakened state since June 2016 made British property at least 18% cheaper, while falling demand forced prices even lower. Is a likely Conservative victory mean the bonanza is about to end?
Each year some 600,000 people move to the UK. A large proportion of those are British people coming back. They may have been living abroad for work, for their health, for early retirement, or with their parents. Many of them will be entitled to benefits. But to claim benefits when returning to the UK your first requirement will be to pass the Habitual Residence Test.
