    The ARLA website shows some links but these are limited to just a few of those with "ties" to ARLA...

    It all depends on wjhat type of rate you are looking i.e. fixed/ variable/ no penalties?

    Also what the loan amount needed is, what the value of the property is and what the rental income is?

  • Hi,
    I'm looking for a first time "buy-to-let" mortgage too. I think I would prefer a fixed rate one for the first few years. One of the important factors is that it must PERMIT letting to social landlords i.e. the local council. Can anyone recommend lenders that would suit, as I have heard that many exclude such lettings. Advice and tips most welcome.

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
