Limited Company Buy to Let

Purchasing through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) limited company has become increasingly popular following changes to mortgage interest tax relief. We can advise on whether a limited company structure may be beneficial for your circumstances and connect you with specialist lenders who offer competitive limited company BTL rates.

We work with lenders who accept newly incorporated SPVs, existing trading companies, and offshore limited companies where suitable.

Portfolio Landlord Advice

If you own 4 or more mortgaged properties, you're classified as a portfolio landlord. This triggers additional underwriting requirements from lenders. We have extensive experience preparing portfolio landlord applications, including full property schedules, cashflow analysis and business plans where required. We know which lenders are the most pragmatic and competitive for portfolio cases.

Key Criteria

• Minimum deposit: Typically 25% (75% LTV). Some products available from 15% deposit (85% LTV).

• Rental coverage: Most lenders require 125–145% rental coverage at a stress rate of 5–5.5%.

• Minimum income: Some lenders require a minimum personal income of £25,000, others have no minimum.

• Property types: Standard houses and flats, HMOs, MUFBs, holiday lets, student lets and specialist properties.

• Ownership structure: Personal name, limited company (SPV), trust, partnership and offshore structures.

Some buy to let mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Your property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What deposit do I need for a buy to let?
Most BTL lenders require a minimum 25% deposit (75% LTV). However, some specialist products are available from 15% deposit (85% LTV). The more deposit you can put down, the better rates available.
Should I buy through a limited company?
There can be tax advantages to purchasing through a limited company (SPV), particularly for higher-rate taxpayers. However, this depends on your individual circumstances. We'll discuss the pros and cons. We recommend speaking to a qualified accountant for tax-specific advice.
Can I get a BTL mortgage as a portfolio landlord?
Yes. Portfolio landlords (4+ mortgaged properties) face more complex underwriting, but we have extensive experience and access to specialist lenders who handle portfolio cases pragmatically.
Can expats get buy to let mortgages in the UK?
Yes. We work with specialist lenders who offer buy to let mortgages to British expats and, in some cases, foreign nationals. Criteria and rates vary by country of residence.
Can I mortgage a holiday let or Airbnb property?
Yes, subject to lender criteria. Some lenders specifically cater for holiday lets and short-term rental properties. We'll find the most suitable product for your investment.
What about flats above shops or restaurants?
Many high street lenders won't consider flats above commercial premises (especially hot food takeaways). We have access to specialist lenders who will consider these properties, often at competitive rates.
