you could try re-mortgaging the buy to let and perhaps the resi as well in order to raise additional money you could possibly raise 100k on just the buy to let then you got another 45k to find.
The resi may be more difficult to re mortgage as now in your sole name but doesn't look impossible more information probably needed to say whether it could be done or not but yeah see an ifa regarding detail.0
