Anyone is able to buy a house, or any sort of property, in the UK, assuming they can afford to do so.
What I mean is that you do not need any sort of visa or permission from the Government to buy property in the UK. Quite a number of properties are owned by non-residents, who often let them out to get the rental income.
If someone does buy a property they might well need permission as appropriate from the UK Government to live in it, which might well mean needing to get a visa.
Of course needing to get a mortgage means convincing the potential lender of the required status.
