How much can an expat borrow against the value of a UK property

Many Expats are earning in high paying professional roles in Accountancy, legal and Gaming worldwide and they would prefer to re-invest back in property in the UK, a region they know well and where there is added benefit of a housing rental demand, more secure regulations and decent rental yields! 

So how much can an Expat borrow..?  if the property is to rent out to a generic tenant then the max available currently as an Expat BTL is 80% more likely is 75%  with rates from 2.89% 

Many Expat lenders stipulate a min loan size or property value of £75,000.How much can an expat borrow against the value of a UK property. 

Additionally, some Expats want to buy, but not to rent it out, it will be their property to reside in, but not just yet. This is called a Buy to Live mortgage, very few lenders offer this, but there is a possibility of 85% loan against the value.   Rates from 3.3% 

There a definitely less barriers than a few years ago to enter the UK property market as an Expat.
