Mortgages for Brits Non Resident

Considers Mortgages for applicants for people who can clearly afford but their circumstance may not neccessarily be standard for which other lenders would strangely not consider. Other lenders actively ignored our circumstance seemingly favoured lending only to local applicants. Ouch, how they ve lost out on customers like me ad many others in my circumstance.
