STRICTER RULES FOR BUY-TO-LET BORROWING

New regulations have just come into force which require lenders to deal differently with those owning 4 or more residential rental properties. This level of landlord will now have to submit full details of their portfolio including values and rental incomes for all of the properties owned, and these must fit into the new affordability calculations.

Those who own fewer than 4 residential rental properties will be able to remortgage properties and increase their portfolio up to the level of 4 much more simply. This does look to be yet a further effort by the Government to disadvantage those seeking to build a large property portfolio.
