Any UK citizen got a mortgage in the phils ?

I know 100% factually that you can buy a condominium, (as long as it falls within the 40:60 rule), without residency permit, SSRV, alien registration permit, marriage etc as I know someone who did it.

The only thing is he did it by sending the full cash amount over.

I was just wondering about the banks with more relaxed policies there. If not, I ll just go with my fall back plan of purchasing in malaysia, where all banks are will ing to lend to foreigners.

PNB Europe seem to suggest they will loan money to UK residents to buy property in the Philippines even if they are not Philippines citizens.

Yeah, unfortunately, as soon as they established I wasnt a filipino citizen in the uk or a former filipino citizen in the uk or married to a filipino, they were not interested.

Even if I had satisfied that requirement they wanted a security on a uk property. Which is not what I was looking for.
