Whilst assessing your buy to let mortgage application, some lenders will want to see that your income is at least £25,000 pa, whereas others will not focus on your personal income and advance your application once you have evidenced your deposit. The deposit that you will need to supply is usually between 25%-40% of the buy to let property price. This can differ depending on the size of your buy to let portfolio. It can be much easier to get a buy to let mortgage as a current homeowner, however, if you are a first time buyer and want to invest in property, it can sometimes be possible to get a buy to let with no experience buying a property. This is a very specialist topic and it may be best to get buy to let mortgage advice in Southampton. The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate some types of buy to let or commercial mortgages.
