Getting a buy to let mortgage:
While you may be familiar with home buyer mortgages, if you have never had a buy to let mortgage before there are a few key differences from other home finance you may have had before.
-
Deposit – While home buyer mortgages can commonly be secured with relatively small deposits, buy to let lenders tend to require borrowers to be able to put down a deposit of at least 25%. Note that there are products available for lower deposits. As with all types of finance, the larger the deposit you can afford to put down the cheaper your mortgage repayments will be.
-
Affordability – Unlike homebuyer mortgages, where affordability is usually based upon a multiple of your annual income, buy to let lenders base it on a rental valuation of the property. Generally, they require the monthly rental yield to be at least 125%-135% of what your monthly mortgage payment would be.
Other factors
While affordability is calculated on the rental potential of the property, lenders may still have a requirement for the minimum income of applicants and also require them to already be homeowners.
From 2017, lenders are required to apply a stricter stress test than before to decide whether to approve a buy to let application. To satisfy the lenders’ stress test, landlords must illustrate that they can afford mortgage repayments in the event that interest rates increase to 5.5%.
In addition, landlords can no longer spread equity across their entire portfolio. Lenders will now review landlords’ portfolio as a whole and if a landlord has one or more properties that are not profitable, then the lender will not grant them their buy to let mortgage.
They may also stipulate the minimum age an applicant can be as well as the maximum age you can be by the end of the mortgage term. These stipulations can vary considerably between providers, so it is worth shopping around to try and find a product that fits your circumstances.
