Hi,
My husband intend to move to Manchester with our 3 young children. I am Australian and my husband is English with Australian citizenship. I am applying for a spouse visa to live in the UK. We hope to be able to purchase a property in Manchester without a loan - we are selling our Australian home to make the move and should have enough money to purchase a UK home outright. Do I need to wait any period of time before I am allowed to purchase a property in the UK?
Thanks
