  • Since mortgage interest is tax deductable, remortgage the current place up to as high LTV as possible then buy the new place for cash.

    yes,

    You could get a buy to let on your existing property - using your equity as a deposit.

    Or a homebuyers mortgage for your new property.

    as stated above it is more viable to have the mortgage / loan so that you can claim the interest from the rental property.

    But before you worry about how to manage the loan interest I'd worry about getting a business plan together for the business you are about to run. Renting a house means you are a landlord and there are rules you need to know about, also SA tax forms to complete.
