Case Study – UK Expat Takes Advantage Of Top Slicing

Interest Cover Ratio (ICR) & Top Slicing Case Study

This is a great case study on how Liquid Expat Mortgages helped a UK expat purchase a new investment property using Top Slicing.

The scenario.
Ms. S Turner was a UK expat residing in the USA for over 6 years. She’d decided to transfer back to UK and was looking to purchase a new investment property in Bristol to complement her existing residential property in the same city. The rental income from the property she wanted did not have sufficient rental income to meet traditional lenders’ minimum ICR requirements.

Here’s how it worked.
By working with one of our specialist lenders Liquid Expat Mortgages adopted a “top slicing” approach to presenting our client’s situation. We were able to take into account Ms. Turner’s savings and other investments, which helped us achieve the minimum threshold required for the correct loan amount.
