Buy to let morgages,definition?

Marlinsjh

I have recently been looking into letting out my property but am unsure about the buy to let morgages.
My current morgage has expired and i would like to consolidate some existing debt,remorgage and let out the property.
I have the opportunity to travel for a short while but not until the end of the year so would it be worth me taking out a buy to let morgage so soon?
I have spoken to a broker and he recommended a 'morgage works' product but i still don't understand if the morgage is based on a fixed rate or whether it will be variable and the repayments will vary as the interest rates go up.
Any advise on the subject would be appreciated

If you take a BTL mortgage you cannot reside in the property so if you are not ready to move out do not complete on it.

The Mortgage Works offer fixed and variable mortgages so get the adviser to clarify if you have any queries with it.
