Landlord finance that stacks up

Whether it is your first rental or an expanding portfolio, buy-to-let lending runs on rental cover, not just your income. We know which lenders are flexible and how to structure it so the numbers work.

Numbers that work, lenders that say yes

Yield checked upfront

We run the rental yield and stress test before you commit, so there are no nasty surprises at application.

The right structure

We talk through personal versus limited company, and point you to proper tax advice where you need it.

Portfolio-friendly

If you already hold several properties, we work with lenders who are comfortable with that.

How it works

Rent has to cover the lending

Buy-to-let lenders test whether the rent comfortably covers the mortgage, usually at a stressed rate. That test, and how you hold the property, drives what you can borrow. We help you get it right first time.

  • Rental cover, done properlyWe work out the rent a lender needs to see and check your deal against it early.
  • Personal or limited companyHow you hold the property has tax and lending consequences. We factor both in.
  • First-timers and portfoliosFrom a single flat to a growing portfolio, including limited-company and HMO cases.
