Things to consider when purchasing a BTL property

Rules and regulations 

• There are specific interest rates and rules that apply to BTL mortgages that differ from your standard mortgage and usually require a minimum deposit of approximately 25%. As well as receiving support from us, we recommend discussing your plans with a conveyancing solicitor so that all legal requirements are understood and your obligations as a landlord are clear.

What you can afford

• We can help you take advantage of any available savings or tax opportunities, however it is important to consider the maintenance of the property and the expenses incurred when regular rental income is not received (i.e. when the property is empty or between tenants).

Where the property is located

• It is important to do your research into the area when considering purchasing a BTL property. While it may be tempting to purchase a cheaper property in an area that you’re not familiar with, you might end up with the wrong type of tenants (i.e. students rather than the young families you had hoped for) or a lack of demand for rentals entirely.

The property specifics

• You will also need to consider who owns the property, exactly what will be included in the sale, which warranties and safety certificates are transferrable and any issues that the property may have.
