Buy To Let Mortgages Explained

Buy to let mortgages have some significant differences from their conventional cousins. One of the most important differences is that with a buy to let mortgage a lender will take into account the anticipated rental income of the home, amongst other things. Some will work on an expected rental income from the proposed property being no less than 125% of the mortgage repayment, of course if you have a reasonable deposit and we find you a low cost buy to let mortgage then that box should be ticked fine. If for example, your mortgage repayment is £450 then your monthly rental income would ideally be around £575. The mortgage repayment calculator in particular will allow you to calculate your mortgage payment and how much rental you would need to be accepted for a buy to let mortgage.

Another Important distinction is the amount of deposit you will require. With a buy to let mortgage the minimum deposit that is required is 20-25% depending on the lender. However it is believed that the home buy scheme or similar may well be available for landlords shortly which means you could get a second home on board at deposit levels of around 10%. This is still more than a 5% deposit to purchase a residential property which some mortgage lenders may offer for example, but not a million miles away. As we give free no obligation quotes and have access to multiple plans in any case then there you might be just as well to give us a call and find out what the latest options are for you in any case. If you use our loan to value (LTV) calculator it will even tell you the amount of deposit that will be required for the price of the letting property you are looking to purchase at a given LTV.
