Own a property in England that is in negative equity while living in China?

If you have moved abroad to live in China you may still have a property that you own in England, Wales or elsewhere. Due to the drop in property values, many of our past clients have been unable to sell their property and when the value does not cover the mortgage outstanding you can be caught in a catch 22 situation.

English bankruptcy from China – Case study

One of our previous clients in China contacted us when they could not maintain payments to their UK creditors any longer……

“I moved from Oxford to China in 2010 as I had been offered a job position as an English teacher. The wage was fairly low but due to the lack of opportunities in England and also a desire to explore the culture of China and Asia I decided to move abroad and take up this exciting offer.

When I moved I had some debts on two credit cards and I also had an overdraft in England which I never seemed to be able to reduce. I also had a flat in Oxford which had a mortgage and an unsecured loan, both from the same company. I rented the flat to tenants but with the agents fees the rent did not quite cover the mortgage payments. I had to try to top these up every month and I could not sell the property due to the value of the flat dropping considerably over the past 4 years.

I suddenly reached a point where I could no longer pay my credit cards or loan and I had also used them when I relocated to China; my situation had spiralled out of control.

I contacted Bankruptcy from Abroad who took control of my situation from start to finish. They dealt with the property situation, my creditors and also filed the bankruptcy on my behalf while I remained in China. After discussing the available solutions I think this was my best option and it has taken a lot of strain away from my life abroad.”
