I'm moving home and thinking of getting a 75% buy to let mortage on my flat.
Will having a buy to let mortage go against me with lenders when getting a 75%repayment mortage?

If the rental income covers the new mortgage, it will generally be ignored.I am an Independent Financial AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as an Independent Financial Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Beware though that rents have fallen two (2) months in a row (LSL), void periods are increasing and home values are falling.
You can always get consent to let in the short term to trial it out, but don't expect any huge profits far from it.:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.

Thanks for quick replies. I'm not looking to make a big profit as long as the rent covers the mortgage.0
