I am in the process of getting a Buy to Let and a New Mortgage and would like to know what is the PROs and Cons of having both mortgages with the same provider or would it be better/safer with different providers?

    The main con that i can see is that your probably not going to get the best deal by placing both with the same lender.

    You will only have to send in 1 set of documents to a provider if they both go to the same place but theyre both generally underwritten differently so you may still have to provide different documents.

    Personally i would want to go with wherever can off me the best deal for what i want - were not talking about small amounts of money here so it could easily add up to be a significant amount of savings.
