What is a buy-to-let mortgage?

A Buy-to-Let mortgage is a type of mortgage designed for individuals or limited companies purchasing property to rent out rather than to live in.

These mortgages differ from residential mortgages in several key ways:

  • Affordability is based on rental income, not personal income
  • Higher deposit requirements, typically 20–25% minimum
  • Interest-only mortgages are more common
  • Higher rates and fees compared to residential mortgages

Buy-to-let finance is available for:

  • Single dwellings
  • HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation)
  • Multi-unit freehold blocks (MUFBs)
  • Holiday lets and Airbnb
  • Limited company structures (SPVs and trading companies)
