What should I look for when purchasing a buy to let?
Buy to let properties must return a decent yield (the rate of return you can expect to receive on your investment expressed as a percentage).
Therefore, there are many factors to consider when purchasing an investment property. You need to balance the potential rental income with the costs of owning and maintaining the house or flat. For example, buying a buy to let in the heart of a student town/city will mean you are likely never to struggle for tenants. However, those tenants may cause thousands of pounds in damage throughout the tenancy and because student houses tend to be less expensive, maintenance costs are higher. You may find it more profitable in the long term to rent to a stable family in a quiet area.
Can I get a mortgage to purchase a buy to let?
There are many buy to let mortgages available
Therefore, it is vital to shop around to ensure you get the best interest rate and terms. You will normally need a larger deposit for a buy to let purchase; most lenders ask for a minimum of 20% of the total purchase price.
