Brit Expat Mortgage Options
Expat buy-to-lets have grown significantly in the last 15 years.
Over the past 15 years, the expat buy-to-let market has continually expanded without any noticeable decline. Increasingly, both current and first-time expat landlords are purchasing properties to tap into this highly profitable sector.
- Over the last 18 years an investor on selling could see their investment double
- If that money had been invested in gilts the returns would have been 220%
- In 2024 over 4 million houses are recorded as rented
- It is estimated lettings will rise to over 7 million in the next 10 years.
- It is estimated by 2028 32% of people under 40 will be renting.
The available data presents compelling facts and figures; if current estimates are accurate, now may be a prudent time to consider expat buy-to-let as your next investment opportunity.
Regardless of perspective, the statistics indicate that UK property continues to be regarded as a reliable long-term investment. Analysis of investment returns over the past 18 years demonstrates the strong performance of the property market during this period.
Property will once again be a hot topic in 2026 and beyond – whether it be a lack of homes being built or annual price inflation. This is sure to fuel the letting market as people struggle to find the funds needed for a house purchase.
