Instead of paying rent, many expat parents are choosing to invest in a property for their children to live in while they study. It’s a practical move that can make financial sense too.
We are expats ourselves, fully regulated in the UK, and we specialise in helping expats buy property for student children.
Whether you’re buying solo or jointly with your child, we’ll guide you through the options and help you secure a mortgage that fits.
We can help you decide between:
Each comes with different rules on deposits, affordability, and tax. We will help you weigh it up and decide what’s best for your situation.
We will match you with lenders who understand expat families and can handle more complex cases without stress.
We will help you find the most suitable product, with options like:
There are also options to let out spare bedrooms (to other students), which can help offset costs and improve affordability, if that’s something you’re considering.
Wherever you’re starting from, we will get you moving with clarity and confidence.
We’re a small, specialist team of expats in the UAE who focus entirely on helping people like you. No call centres, no generic advice, just tailored support from people who understand the process from both sides. Here’s how we work:
Buying for your student child isn’t just about convenience, it can also be a strong financial move. You may benefit from property growth over the time your child is studying, plus potential rental income if they share with others.
And when they finish? You (or they) can keep it, sell it, or convert it to a full buy-to-let. It’s flexible, long-term value with short-term impact.
You don’t need a mortgage lined up or a decision made. Just bring your questions, and we will help you figure out the best way forward.
We try to answer all enquiries within 24 hours on business days. If there is a certain time you’d like a call, please state this and we’ll endeavour to contact you then.
