If you are a British expat working in Hong Kong or Singapore and you would like help to buy a property in the UK, Trinity Financial can help.

We have a wealth of experience arranging mortgages for international clients purchasing residential and investment properties, particularly in London and the south-east. Our expert brokers have also helped clients living and working abroad to remortgage onto better rates.

Trinity has access to a host of high-street lenders and private banks offering fantastically low mortgage rates.

For example, one bank has a two-year fixed rate below 1.50% and it is available to expat borrowers. There is a £995 arrangement fee and applicants will need a 40% deposit to qualify. The maximum loan size is £1.5 million.

Aaron Strutt, product manager at Trinity Financial, says: “Many of the mortgage enquiries we have taken from Hong Kong and Singapore have been from bankers working in large financial districts, but there are also a lot of engineers, English language teachers, business professionals and doctors looking for help.

“Mortgage lenders are recognising that there is strong demand from people living abroad and they are offering more expat mortgages. They are realising that many clients are in a good position financially and they are keen to secure a home to live in when they return to the UK.”

A recent report highlighted that 92% of British expats in Hong Kong are attracted by the widespread use of English language. It also pointed out 87% of expats in China say they are earning more money than they did in the UK.
