Buy to Let Mortgages

Buy to Let Mortgages

With the current volatility of the UK pension market, managing your own portfolio of properties can be an attractive proposition. Over the long term property has historically been a very safe investment decision, however you should not rely on past performance as a guide to the future performance.We can help you way up all the risks associated with this market.

Lenders view buying property that you will rent as an investment, this means that they apply different criteria when assessing your application to those used for residential mortgages.

The Buy-to-Let market is developing very rapidly but the following is an idea of what a Lender may expect:

They will frequently ask that your tenants sign an Assured Shorthold Tenancy greement. This is renewable every 6 months (rather than 12 or 18) and protects you in the event that you have unreliable tenants.
Many lenders (although not all) will evaluate affordability by comparing the rental income to cost of the mortgage. They will want to see that the rent received for the property will exceed the mortgage payments by a comfortable margin (eg. Rent = 120% x £ interest-only mortgage payment).
No reference schemes, which don’t require you to prove the rental income, are available however they generally cost more.
Lenders will usually have some kind of limit regarding the number of properties you can own (eg. 10) or the maximum overall value of your property portfolio. (eg. £1M).
Be realistic - you are likely to have to supply a deposit of 15% or more, especially if you want the most competitive rates. When deals sound too good to be true they usually are.
Buy to Let interest rates are generally slightly higher than those for residential mortgages because of the risk involved in renting property out – although this gap IS closing fast.
At MORTGAGES 4 U LTD you can still get a buy to let mortgage if you have had credit problems in the past.

The overall cost for comparison is 6.8% APR. The actual rate available will depend upon your circumstances. Ask for a personalised illustration. A fee maybe charged on completion (typically £299) and can be added to the amount borrowed. Paying off short term loans and credit cards with a mortgage could cost you more over the long term. Early repayment charges may apply.
