Buying UK Property as a Non-Resident

In short: Non-UK residents can buy UK property freely, but pay a 2% stamp duty surcharge on top of normal rates (and the 5% surcharge if it's an additional home). Expect thorough ID and source-of-funds checks from agents and solicitors. Non-resident landlords must register with HMRC's Non-Resident Landlord Scheme, otherwise tax is withheld from rent, and gains on UK property are taxable for non-residents. Specialist lenders offer mortgages to overseas buyers, often with bigger deposits. Fraser Bond helps international clients buy, let and manage London homes.
