UK Loan to fund mortgage in Sweden

in Loans
Hi,
I have recently moved to Sweden and I am looking into buying a property to invest and also to save on very high rent prices v.s. mortgage repayments (think double?!).
I have approx 60% of the downpayment saved up but I require an additional few thousand to help reach it quicker. I have done the maths and getting a small personal loan in the UK could help me reach my downpayment figure quicker and thus make savings long term.
Do you know if getting a loan in the UK can be detected in Sweden when applying for my mortgage?
Thanks
