Buy To Let
Mortgage Advice

in Nottingham

A buy to let mortgage is a mortgage you take out on a property you want to buy as an investment property, which you will then rent to tenants. The buy to let mortgage market has changed over the years, and there is now much more to consider before taking out a buy to let mortgage.

The most important decision to make before you take on a new buy to let mortgage is whether to purchase the property in your personal name, or to set up a Limited Company to buy the property. In many cases the long-term tax benefits of buying the property through a Limited Company outweigh purchasing an investment property in your personal name.

Buy to let mortgages are assessed in two ways. The lender will look at your personal circumstances and ensure that you can ‘afford’ the mortgage if your tenant doesn’t pay, however, the main assessment is based on the amount of rent you receive for the property. All lenders have their own affordability calculators which determine the amount of mortgage they will lend you based on what rent you expect to receive.

It is vital to speak to a property finance expert before you invest as there are many factors that need to be considered when investing in buy to let property.
