Buy-to-let isn't like a residential mortgage.

Buy to let mortgages can be more complex than a residential mortgage and lenders have different lending criteria due to the increased risk involved. Additionally, fees and interest rates may be higher for buy to let products. Lenders have specific mortgage products for both private and business landlords, with different lending criteria for both.

At Orwell Mortgages, we are here to help steer you through the Buy to Let process to make sure that you get the right buy to let mortgage that suits your needs or the needs of your business.

Buy-to-let mortgages can be more complex than a residential mortgage: lenders assess rental income (often via a rental cover or "stress test" calculation) alongside your personal circumstances, and criteria can differ significantly between private individuals and limited companies. We'll explain which route suits you and find a mortgage that fits your needs, or the needs of your business.
