Mortgage Options for Kent Landlords

Our team of experienced mortgage advisers understand that buy-to-let lending can be more complex than a standard residential mortgage. That is why we take the time to explain your options clearly, compare deals across the market, and help you secure a mortgage that suits your plans, budget, and long-term investment goals.

A fixed-rate mortgage keeps your repayments stable for a set period, usually between two and five years. It is ideal if you prefer consistent monthly payments and want to plan your rental income with confidence.

With a variable rate, your interest can rise or fall depending on market conditions. While this can lead to lower initial rates, it also means your repayments could change over time.

Most landlords choose interest-only mortgages. You pay only the interest each month and repay the capital when you sell or refinance. This can help maximise cash flow, though you will need a clear exit plan for repayment.
