    So if you bought property 1 for £43k, how come you now have a mortgage for £49k?

    The mortgage that I was given was 33, 000 buy the bank but my overall payments for 25 years would be around 53, 000
    Am I making any sense

    If you wanted to pay off the mortgage today how much would that cost you? For each property.

    This means you would never pay the future interest.

    Or tell use the following

    Amount borrowed, Interest rate, payments per month for each property (don't put them together)

    Barely. When someone asks you how much you owe, it is standard to quote the amount you owe at that point, not how much you're going to pay back overall.
  • So are you saying both properties were brought on a 90% LTV mortgage (10% deposit)?

    Using the figures in post #17 this would make the mortgages as below
    Property 1 - £38700
    Property 2 - £36000
    Does this sound right?

    Based on both properties being worth £55k then you would have £16300 equity in property 1 and £19000 in property 2 less any payments that had been made (The repayment part only, not interest which is high in the first part of a mortgage so I would work on not having paid anything off). I would also say a £55k value seems extreme as that represents an increase of 28% and 37% respectively which seems extremely high.

    As mentioned you shouldnt let out a property brought on a residential mortgage so I would be vary wary about that.

    To clear up the apparent confusion, you dont owe the lender the interest over the entire mortgage unless you complete the whole term. If you give the money back, either cash or another mortgage etc, then they cannot charge you interest on it. Of course there is usually fees etc to do with early repayment.

    Yeah that does sound about right.
    So do you think I can remortgage as the repayments have not been much as I bought the properties last year.

    Is this possible

    The maximum loan to value on a BTL remortgage is going to be 75%, maybe 80% at a push. Does the outstanding mortgage and any early repayment penalty payable go above 80%? If it does, you simply cannot remortgage.

    In addition, your rent will need to be at least 125% of the monthly mortgage interest assuming an annual rate of 6%.

    For example, a property worth £55k can be remortgaged upto £44k and the rent would have to be £275 per month.

    You must adhere to both the maximum loan to value and the minimum rent requirement.
