Are you ready for a Buy-to-Let Mortgage?

When you take out a buy-to-let mortgage, you will be expected to meet certain criteria:

• Buy-to-Let deposit
  
  You will be required to put down a deposit for buy to let mortgages and this will be typically larger than for a standard residential mortgage - it will likely be 20-30% of the property's value.
  We currently have an excellent low deposit mortgage product available - please contact us.
  
  
• Rental income
  
  Your expected rental income must exceed your buy to let mortgage repayments by a certain percentage - for example, your mortgage lender may require a rental income of 125% of your monthly mortgage payments.

Buy to Let Deal "Investment Potential"

Your buy to let mortgage lender will also want to establish whether the property you are buying is a good long-term investment. Many investors calculate this in terms of "yield" a simple way of calculating the yield is the following formula:

Gross BTL Yield = (annual rental income) / (house price)
                     eg £6,000 annual rent (£500 PM) / £100,000
                     = 6% Yield

NB: A general rule of thumb is that a good yield is generally above 8% - however this varies aross the country and you should do your own research in to what is the best investment property for you.
