I dont no anyone who would plan to keep a BTL for 19 years .
But if I where thinking that way I would have looked at a repayment mortgage . surely the point of BTL is to make money asap and get rid ,not to keep it 19 years .The only way you will ever be sure it will be paid is to get a repayment mortgage . History tells us endowments dont work .0 -
Hello Nick
What made you take the interest only mortgage? Was it to keep your rental income within the lenders 125% of mortgage payment requirements? Who is your lender? Have you checked the contract to see if you can make overpayments?I am a Mortgage Adviser
