Overseas mortgages

When buying a property abroad you have a choice to make – if you have a residential property here in the UK, you could either release equity from your UK property, or you could use your property abroad to finance the purchase.  As a general rule of thumb, you should try to get the mortgage in the currency you are going to earn income in.

If you think borrowing money on your UK property is the way for you then speak to one of our expert mortgage advisers at L&C Mortgages.

When purchasing properties abroad in a local currency, it is vital to remember that fluctuating foreign exchange rates will directly affect the Sterling price that you pay for your property. In many cases, buyers will need to make a number of staged payments over the duration of the property purchase and it is essential to understand the implications of rate fluctuations over that period. In recognition of this fact, and to help our customers, London and Country has formed a partnership with Moneycorp Commercial Foreign Exchange.
