Questions landlords ask

How much can I borrow on a buy-to-let?

Most lenders work it out from the rent, not your salary. They check the monthly rent covers 125% to 145% of the interest at a stress rate, often around 5% to 5.5%. The analyser does this for you.

Often for higher-rate taxpayers, because the company deducts all its mortgage interest and lenders usually apply the lower 125% rental cover. It costs more to run. Speak to your accountant first.

Usually at least 25% of the price. The rent still has to pass the lender's stress test, which can push the deposit higher.
