Buy-To-Let Mortgage FAQs

What is a buy-to-let mortgage?

A buy-to-let mortgage is a loan specifically designed for properties that will be rented out, rather than lived in by the owner. It usually requires a larger deposit and has different lending criteria than residential mortgages.

How much deposit do I need for a buy-to-let mortgage?

Most buy-to-let mortgages require a minimum deposit of 20–25%, though some lenders may ask for more depending on the deal and borrower profile.

Can I get a buy-to-let mortgage as a first-time buyer?

It’s possible, but fewer lenders offer this option. We can guide you through what’s available and help structure your application to improve approval chances.

Do I need to own a home to apply for a buy-to-let mortgage?

While not always required, many lenders prefer applicants to already own a residential property. However, we do work with lenders who consider first-time buyers.

Can I buy through a limited company?

Yes! Many landlords choose to purchase rental properties through a limited company for tax efficiency. We offer access to specialist lenders that support this structure.
