    Moving to HSBC for UK mortgage?

    My mortgage is due to be renewed in the UK however the Buy-To-Let rates i'm being quoted are more than my existing rate because I'm overseas. A friend advised HSBC HK offer overseas mortgages but I'd like to know what experiences others have had???

    Thanks in advance,

    I'm interested too, but could not figure out how to subscribe to the thread without writing something.

    The best service I have ever had with HSBC are with these guys

    Expat banking and wealth management from HSBC Expat: HSBC Expat

    Two years ago I wanted to raise some cash for a renovation on UK flat.

    HSBC HK turned me down. London turned me down with the excuse they could not lend as my BTL had a tenant.

    HSBC Expat, Jersey completed the deal in under a week.

    @Cwbguy - Keep hearing very good things about their expat team. A couple of them used to troll our happy hours / forums several years ago and I do think some of our older members benefited from them.

    @shri I have never had a problem with them. Last year my HK rep. was being typically unhelpful. A quick call to Jersey and an hour later the HK rep called, situation solved.

    Nothing to lose from a quick call to see if they can help the OP.

    [email protected] is my contact in Jersey
