Rate FAQs
Quick answers to common pricing questions.
Why would I use a limited company for property investment?+
Limited companies can offer tax advantages for property investment, including lower corporation tax rates, ability to offset mortgage interest against rental income, and potential for more efficient tax planning.
Can I get a limited company mortgage with adverse credit?+
Some specialist lenders may consider limited company mortgages for companies with minor credit issues, though the criteria may be stricter. You'll typically need a larger deposit and may face higher rates.
Can I get a limited company mortgage for a property that needs renovation?+
Yes, though renovation projects may require higher deposits and more detailed planning. You'll need to demonstrate that the renovation will improve the property's value and that the company has the expertise to complete the project.
What are the ongoing costs of limited company property ownership?+
Ongoing costs include mortgage payments, insurance, utilities, maintenance, and professional fees. Budget for 15-25% of rental income for these costs, though this varies by property type.
Can I get a limited company mortgage for a property in a different location?+
Yes, though lenders may have preferences for certain locations or property types. You'll need to demonstrate that the property is suitable for the company's needs and that you can manage it effectively.
What happens if I want to sell the property?+
You can sell the property at any time, though you may need to pay early repayment charges if you're still within the initial fixed rate period. The sale proceeds will be used to repay the mortgage.
