11 Mar 2025Mike Ashton responded promptly to my enquiry and took the time to listen carefully during our first call, which was very reassuring – all at no charge for the initial consultation. Mike then offered to summarize everything in writing and provide an action plan, delegating some tasks to me to help save on costs. He was extremely knowledgeable and, just as importantly, ready to act as a link within Cambridge Building Surveys to bring in additional expertise when needed. I’m looking forward to working with Mike and feel in good hands with him at the helm.

17 Feb 2025Great website - absolutely full and easy to understand information of what each category of Survey involves - and shows pricing too which I thought very reasonable. Great office staff who made the whole process easy from beginning to end - very pleased with the efficiency and friendlines of Cambridge Building Surveyors and would not hesitate to recommend or use at a future time.

24 Jan 2025Just recently used Cambridge Building Surveyors to conduct a Level 2 survey on a property we were buying. The communication before the survey was responsive and we were well informed. Very impressed that despite being very thorough and well detailed the survey report came within 24 hours of the survey being completed. Very good service would certainly recommend!

12 Jul 2024I simply cannot express my gratitude enough for Mike and his team. Mike truly exceeded expectations by offering exceptional advice and support on a challenging issue related to spray foam insulation in a loft. His expertise was impressive, yet it was his willingness to invest time, offer a sympathetic ear, and serve as a valuable guide throughout the decision-making process that stood out most. I wholeheartedly endorse Mike and would not hesitate to seek out his services or recommend him to others in the future.

Practical guides and explainers from our blog — relevant to this mortgage type.

The proposed UK holiday tax could cost £500 million and may increase costs for landlords and first-time buyers in the short-term rental market.

UK buy-to-let repossessions have risen by 10% in Q4 2025, with landlords facing higher mortgage repayments due to rising interest rates. Landlords with a £250,000 mortgage face an annual repayment increase of £1,975.

Rents outside London have flatlined for the first time since 2017, potentially impacting landlords. With increased borrowing costs and stagnant rents, landlords could face squeezed profits.

Buy-to-let lending increased by 18.2% in Q4 2025, driven by landlords refinancing existing loans. This led to increased rental yields and lower interest rates, benefiting landlords.
