What Is a Buy to Let Mortgage?

A buy to let mortgage differs from a standard residential mortgage as it is not assessed based on your personal income. Instead, lenders calculate the amount you can borrow based on the potential rental income of the property.

Rental yields play a crucial role, with lenders typically requiring the rental income to exceed a certain percentage of the property’s value. Each lender has specific terms and requirements, and our experienced advisors are here to help you navigate these variations and find the best mortgage for your property investment.

Considerations

What to Consider Before Investing in Buy to Let

Investing in property can be rewarding, but it also comes with risks and responsibilities. Before entering the buy to let market, consider the following:

  • The rental yield is a key factor. Research how much rent similar properties in the area are generating and assess whether your property offers competitive returns.
  • The location of the property is also important. Will it be convenient for you to access if repairs are needed? If it’s far away, you may need to hire a property management agent, which adds additional costs to your budget.
  • Allow for rental voids. Periods when the property may be vacant, and factor this into your financial planning.
  • Property maintenance. Property maintenance and repairs, such as boiler breakdowns, are the landlord’s responsibility. Setting aside funds for these situations will help you manage your investment effectively.

By addressing these factors and seeking professional advice, you can maximise the success of your property investment.
