  • If I wanted to buy a place overseas with a UK mortgage, what are the general points to note?
    Presumably they lend less? How do they judge property value and all that jazz?

  • Remortgage your current place to get the equity out, buy new place in the resulting cash.

  • Even if you go to a UK bank you will probably end up dealing with one of their overseas branches. If you borrow in another currency your repayments will be subject to exchange rate fluctuations. I think that’s the main thing that I would worry about, particularly now.
