About getting a buy to let mortgage
Although you may be familiar with home buyer mortgages, securing buy to let mortgage finance has some distinct differences from standard home finance:
Deposit
Most providers of buy to let mortgages will require a larger deposit than you would expect. When searching for a property you intended to live in, lenders tend to offer buy to let mortgages with a maximum loan to value of 75%.
Therefore, you may need to be able to put down a deposit of at least 25% on the proposed property. Depsite the high deposit requirement with most lenders, there are some products available that need smaller deposits. As with most kinds of finance however the larger the deposit you can afford to put down, the lower the interest rates will be on the loan.
Affordability
Due to changes in how buy to let mortgages are regulated, landlords with multiple properties can no longer spread equity across their entire portfolio. Lenders now require an in-depth review of the applicant's property portfolio to make sure that every property is profitable. This means that if one or more of an applicant's properties are not profitable, then BM Solutions will not provide the buy to let mortgage.
While most lenders will still have a minimum income requirement for applicants, buy to let mortgages do not tend to be based on a multiple of the applicant’s income. Instead many providers calculate affordability on the rental value of a property. Generally, lenders will require the potential monthly rental yield to cover at least 145% of the monthly mortgage payment, based on a professional rental valuation.
In addition, BM Solutions apply an income stress test to ensure that the applicant can afford mortgage payments in the event that the interest rates increase to 5.5%.
