Remortgage your buy-to-let

How does a buy-to-let remortgage work?

Buy-to-let remortgages work like other kinds of mortgage agreement, and plans can be offered on an interest-only basis. This means the initial amount you borrow will only be repaid at the end of the mortgage deal, whilst monthly repayments are used to cover the interest.

Like a buy-to-let mortgage, remortgage agreements typically use the rental income to cover the monthly costs.

By changing the terms of your current mortgage, you could be offered lower rates and repayment options, or raise more money to put towards investment in additional property. However, by releasing another lump sum, you could end up paying back for longer than your original agreement.

Am I eligible for a buy-to-let remortgage?

Whether or not you’re eligible for a loan will depend on the requirements of the lender. Your eligibility will depend on several factors, such as:

Commonly asked questions about buy-to-let remortgaging

Do I need a solicitor?

If you’re looking to borrow more money with your current lender, or agree a better payment plan, you usually don’t need a solicitor. However, if you’re remortgaging with another lender, you will usually need their services.

Do I need a valuation?

A valuation is required, as the worth of the property is used to assess how much you can borrow.

Can I pay off a buy-to-let remortgage early?

Outstanding balances can be paid off at any point during your agreement. However, it’s worth bearing in mind that some lenders will charge an Early Repayment Fee if you decide to pay off the balance in full before the deadline.
