Guiding your Clients through Buy To Let

Buy to Let (BTL) mortgages have been popular in the UK for a number of years. However, they are more complex than standard home loans and consequently there are many more considerations for buyers.

As a major provider of BTL mortgages, we have a responsibility to ensure that our BTL mortgage customers — your clients — fully understand their responsibilities, the risks and any costs associated with this type of property investment.

We also recognise that BTL investors; your clients; are facing more and more regulation, which can often be very confusing.

We've designed this microsite to help you educate your clients in these areas and to help them make key decisions about their own BTL ambitions.

Financial aspects

From buying and maintaining the property, finding a tenant and collecting rent, to paying tax on the annual profits or when the property is sold - your BTL clients have a lot to think about.



Landlord obligations

When it comes to legal and regulatory responsibilities, many of the procedures that BTL landlords must follow will help to protect them as well as their tenants.
