Yes, but don't expect a high LTV ratio nor a cheap interest rate.0

There are a couple of lenders that will allow you to re-mortgage a foreign property to raise funds.
Those funds can then allow you to put as a deposit/buy the BTL in the UK.
However, the lender for the BTL would have to be happy with your residency status which you have not put down.
This is quite involved and I would suggest going via a whole of market broker to make sure you do not trip up along the way, with the various lending criteria hoops that you will need to jump throughI am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
