Buy to Let Mortgage Advice

As with any mortgage there are two main ways of repaying your mortgage, however the advantages and disadvantages are slightly different when considering Buy to Let Mortgages. We offer the following buy to let mortgage advice:

Repayment Type	Definition	Comments
Repayment	Each month your repayment pays a small amount off the loan and the rest of your payment goes towards paying the interest off the loan.	This method ensures the full loan is repaid in the agreed term, if correct, regular repayments are made. However, the draw back with this method is that you are not able to offset your repayments against the income tax payable.
Interest Only	Each month your repayment only goes towards paying the interest off the loan.	At the end of the term, unless you have taken out an investment vehicle such as an ISA, Pension or Endowment, you will still owe the full Loan amount. At this point it is common for people to sell the property, pay off the Loan and hopefully enjoy the profit they have made from the sale of the property. With this method of repayment the interest paid on the mortgage can be offset against tax.

Your home is at risk if you do not keep up with your repayments on your mortgage or any other loan secured against it.
