We are able to assist you with mortgages from over 30 Countries. We are
particularly proud to be among the first to offer mortgages in Eastern Europe
including Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria with others being added
regularly..
Where do you start?
Pleasecomplete your details at the bottom of this page and one of our specialist
advisers will contact you to discuss your requirements.
Approval in Principle
For all countries we are able to offer an approval in principle service. We will
ask you to complete our confidential information form. This provides us with
sufficient information about your finances to advise you of the likely hood of
obtaining finance. In some cases we can obtain a formal approval in principle
directly from the lender which is particularly comforting for new build
purchases where you need to commit to a purchase way in advance of applying for
the mortgage.
What happens next?
If you wish to proceed, we will send you a full application pack. Any required
application forms will be pre-populated with the information you have already
supplied. We will supply you with a specific document requirements checklist and
additional information and tips about your purchase.
During the purchase
Once you have returned you application to us, as well as processing the
application, we will provide you with guidance on the whole process. We will
monitor your application with the lender closely and provide you with regular
updates and explanation of any terms when the offer is produced. We will liaise
with your other chosen professionals to help with your understanding of the
complexities of your purchase such as buying through a company, residency
permits, taxation issues, life cover assignment etc.
Additional Services
As with the UK, you will be required to insure the property. Many Overseas
lenders also insist on Life Cover. In some cases an existing plan may be used if
it meets the minimum requirements. It is important this issue is not left too
late, as you may be unable to complete on your purchase until cover is in place,
which can sometimes be delayed by requirements for medical information. Our
recommended independent advisers can provide specific advice.
Our Fees
£395 on mortgage application and 0.5% of the mortgage (minimum £500) on
sucessful completion.
