Q.01
Can I get a mortgage in London as a foreign national?
Yes. London has one of the highest concentrations of foreign nationals and visa holders in the UK. WIS Mortgages specialises in Foreign National and Visa Holder Mortgages covering Skilled Worker, Spouse, Tier 2 and other eligible visa routes. We work with lenders who accept overseas deposits and thin UK credit files.
Yes. London has a large contractor and freelance workforce particularly in technology, finance and media. Our Contractor Mortgages use your day rate for affordability. IR35, umbrella and limited company contractors are all accepted. Day rates in London often allow contractors to borrow significantly more than standard income multiples.
Most lenders require a minimum 5 to 10 percent deposit for residential mortgages in London. For higher value properties above £1 million some lenders may require 15 to 25 percent. For Foreign National and Visa Holder cases a 5 percent deposit may be possible with the right lender.
Yes. We handle high value and complex income mortgage cases in London including High Net Worth Mortgages, Large Mortgages above £1 million, Limited Company Director Mortgages using retained profits, and Multiple Income Stream Mortgages combining salary, dividends, rental income and contract income.
Yes. London remains one of the strongest buy-to-let markets in the UK. We offer Standard Buy-to-Let Mortgages, HMO Mortgages, SPV Mortgages through a limited company and Bridging Loans for auction and renovation purchases. Rental yields in London vary significantly by area and property type.
From application to mortgage offer typically takes 2 to 4 weeks. Completion takes a further 4 to 8 weeks. Complex London cases including high value properties, foreign national applications and contractor mortgages may take slightly longer due to manual underwriting and additional documentation requirements.
