How We Structure South Africa Cases

ZAR Income Underwriting

Lenders that accept South African salaries, dividends and business profits, applying a currency haircut rather than declining overseas income.

SARB Exchange Control Guidance

We coordinate with your South African tax and exchange-control adviser so single discretionary and foreign investment allowances align with your deposit timeline.

BTL, HMO & Residential Options

Personal-name and SPV buy-to-let, HMO and multi-unit investment, plus residential mortgages for those relocating to the UK.

Acorn.finance & Acorn.mortgage are trading styles of Paul Thompson. Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA #660207). Commercial mortgages, unregulated bridging, and business loans are not all regulated by the FCA. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
