Buying UK property from overseas

Most firms selling UK property abroad are paid by the developer. We are buying agents: we act for you, underwrite the asset before you commit, and say so when the numbers do not work. These pages set out the tax, the finance and the process for a buyer who is not in the UK.

Overseas buyers

UK property for overseas investors

How overseas investors buy UK property: non-resident tax, finance, ownership structure and buying remotely. Independent buying agents acting for you, not the seller.

Gulf

UK property for GCC investors

Off-market UK property sourcing for investors in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain. Buy-side mandates, Sharia-compatible finance routes, remote completion.

United States

UK property for US investors

How American investors buy UK property: non-resident stamp duty, US tax reporting, financing from the US, LLC versus personal ownership and completing remotely.

Asia

UK property for Hong Kong & Singapore investors

Buying and structuring a multi-property UK holding from Hong Kong or Singapore: non-resident tax, BNO-route buyers, finance, SPV ownership and remote completion.

Finance

Non-resident & expat UK mortgages

How overseas and expat buyers finance UK investment property: which lenders lend, typical loan-to-value and rates, documents required and how long it really takes.

Tax

Non-resident tax on UK property

What an overseas buyer actually pays on UK property: the 2% non-resident stamp duty surcharge, the Non-Resident Landlord Scheme, non-resident capital gains tax and IHT exposure.

Deal sourcing

UK deal sourcing company

A UK deal sourcing company acting for the buyer: off-market stock, written underwriting and a mandate you control. Used by investors in the Gulf, Asia, Europe and the US.

Foreign investors

UK property investment company for foreign investors

Choosing a UK property investment company as a foreign investor: who pays them, how stock is priced, what to verify, and what a buyer-side mandate looks like instead.

Due diligence

UK property due diligence

Independent due diligence on a UK property purchase from abroad: title, tenancy, survey, planning, valuation sanity-check and AML, with findings written for a remote buyer.

Structuring

Multi-property UK portfolio structuring

How overseas investors structure several UK properties: SPV versus personal ownership, how lenders view each, financing multiple assets, and the practical order of purchases.

Overseas buyers

Why invest in UK property

The case for UK property from abroad and the case against: yields by region, currency, legal certainty, tax drag, liquidity and what actually goes wrong for overseas buyers.

Family offices

Family office consultants, London

Property consultants for single and multi-family offices in London: acquisition mandates, allocation sizing, off-market access, reporting and governance for overseas family capital.
