peterc1983 10 Posted October 19, 2014 On the face of it, I can't see why you would not be able to get a joint mortgage with your mother -- provided you can pass the credit check in the UK. The problem will be a UK bank lending to you when your income and current assets are (all?) held offshore. Additionally, depending on your situation you may not be classed as UK resident at all. You'd definitely have to consult a mortgage advisor, or your UK bank, to see what their lending criteria are. Some bank certainly will offer you a mortgage in these circumstances (Barclays Wealth for example), but I'd guess the lending criteria are tough and the deposit large.
