Portfolio Buy-to-Let
What is a Portfolio Landlord?
The Prudential Regulatory Authority (PRA) definition of a portfolio landlord is "borrowers with four or more distinct mortgaged buy-to-let properties, either together or separately, in aggregate."
If you fall into this category, it will mean lenders need to carry out additional checks when underwriting your mortgage application, these include:
• Your property investment experience
• The gross amount of your mortgage borrowing across all properties
• Your assets and liabilities, including tax liability
• Historical and future expected cash flow from your portfolio
• All other sources of income
Many full time or professional landlords – those who make their income primarily from rental property – will fall under this bracket, and will need to apply for portfolio landlord mortgages instead of standard buy to let mortgages.
