can i please ask questions about buy to let mortgages?

[stareatthetvscreen]

how easy/difficult are they to get nowadays?

will prob have 50% deposit but my only income is pension and benefits...

thanks :)

so can you afford to run two houses? Can you afford all the insurances, fixes, repairs, void periods?

happy with 3-4% return which is the MAXIMUM you will get BEFORE deducting the mortgae and all expenses?

1.maybe.good point.

2.thinking more of the long term capital gain.

thanks special :)

fair enough (although remember CGT). But do your sums, only the drunken journos think that BTL is an instant money tree. Trouble is, many believe them so the landlord-haters get ranting and some landlords get caught out.

thank you
