Looking for best BTL Deal ;

Tie-in 2 years max (but will extend to 3yrs for a good deal).

Low start-up costs (but overall costs in 1st 2 years taken into account).

Ideally a Tracker, as I expect Bank Rate to fall (but again, overall costs to be compared with fixed etc).

Anyone have any good rates available please ??

  • Hi there try standard life 4.99% I asked the same question and somebody told me about this btl. 2 years fixed rate no tie ins out of that period, fee total £500.

    rental needs to be 130% more than the interest payment of the mortgage. Mortgage brokers charge 1.5% (£1500).

    As to tracker a bit of advice. We took out a mortgage not fixed and the interest rates went up rather than down and we struggled, this deal is just about up and we are definately going for fixed, we at least know where we are for 2 years.
