hello


I was just wondering if I can change from a residential mortgage to a buy to let with a different lender

basically own a property with a value of around £175 000 with a mortgage with Santander of £80000
I am looking to converting to a buy to let but I don't think I would qualify with Santander because of earnings
am looking to release around £22000
worst case scenario they value house at £170000 I would like to keep it at 60% ltv which would give me £102000
just wondering can I purchase a buy to let with different lender paying off Santander and releasing the capital
I plan to move in my parents house as they are often abroad
no debt earnings of £22000 pa and already own a buy to let of £98000 mortgage with value of £130000
have lived in my current residential home for 12 years
thanks for your time

    Yes would try with my btl lender. But it may sound daft but was just wondering can I get a btl mortgage and then paying my residential off. So getting 100k then paying the 80k residential off. Btl is around £220 interest only with rent at least £650. I would obviously need a good broker if it's possible
