Yes, it is possible to purchase a property in the UK with a partner who is not a UK resident. However, there may be some additional legal and financial considerations to take into account, such as tax implications, mortgage eligibility, and residency status.
If you are both planning to apply for a mortgage, the lender will typically require proof of income and residency for both parties. If your partner is not a UK resident, they may need to provide additional documentation, such as proof of income and employment from their home country.
In terms of tax implications, it is important to be aware that if you own a property jointly with a non-UK resident, you may be subject to additional taxes such as Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax.
It is recommended that you consult with a legal and financial professional who can provide guidance on the specific requirements and implications of purchasing a property in the UK with a non-UK resident partner.
