WHY LIMITED COMPANY LANDLORDS STRUGGLE TO BORROW MORE

Many landlords move to a limited company expecting better tax efficiency and smoother borrowing.
Instead, they’re offered less than expected — or declined — without a clear explanation.

Lenders assess limited company buy-to-let very differently from personal mortgages.
Stress testing, Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR) rules, and internal lender models often restrict borrowing — even when rental income looks strong and the portfolio is performing well.

This leaves experienced landlords injecting more capital than planned, scaling back purchases, or delaying growth — when the real issue isn’t the investment, but how the application is structured and where it’s placed.

This is where most limited company borrowing strategies quietly break down.

HOW LENDER STRESS TESTS AND ICR RULES RESTRICT LIMITED COMPANY BORROWING

Many landlords run into problems because:

 • Stress rates can be set as high as 7.5%, even if you’re fixing at a much lower rate

• ICR thresholds can reach 170–175%, requiring significantly higher rental income

• You’re asked to reduce borrowing or increase your deposit, even when the numbers feel strong

• Refinancing or expanding your portfolio starts to feel frustratingly out of reach

REAL LIMITED COMPANY BUY-TO-LET RESULTS

Case Study 1: Helping a Company Director Secure a Buy-to-Let Mortgage Through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV)

👩‍💼 Client Profile:
Gareth, a company director based in Carmarthenshire, was looking to expand his property portfolio by purchasing a buy-to-let through a newly established Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV). His income was a mix of a low salary, irregular dividends, and retained profits within the business.

⚠️ The Challenge:
• Gareth’s income structure didn’t fit the standard lending criteria used by high-street banks.
• He was unsure how to use his SPV for the mortgage and concerned lenders wouldn’t recognise retained profits.
• Several lenders had already turned him down or offered significantly reduced borrowing limits.
• Time was tight — the property had strong rental potential and was attracting competing offers.

🔍 My Solution:
I assessed Gareth’s income holistically, looking beyond salary and dividends to include retained profits. By accessing specialist lenders, I identified a lender comfortable with SPV structures and company director income profiles. I prepared the case with detailed documentation to clearly demonstrate affordability and the SPV’s setup.

Outcome:
• Gareth was approved for the full loan amount at a competitive interest rate.
• The lender accepted his retained profits, enabling him to borrow more than traditional lenders had offered.
• The application was approved quickly, allowing him to secure the property ahead of other buyers.
• Gareth is now growing his portfolio and using the same SPV structure for future purchases.

💬 Client Testimonial:
“When your income doesn’t fit the high-street mould, expert advice makes all the difference. Lyndsey helped me unlock better borrowing through my SPV and secure the property without delay.” – Gareth, Carmarthenshire

Case Study 2: Expert Mortgage Advice Empowers a Buy-to-Let Landlord’s Investment Growth

👩‍💼 Client Profile:
Our client, a higher-rate taxpayer and experienced professional, owned a portfolio of five Buy-to-Let properties. With solid income and a goal to expand, he sought to remortgage one property—a single unit with four flats under one title—to fund a new investment.

⚠️ The Challenge:
This property structure posed challenges, as many lenders require separate leases for each unit. Additionally, as a higher-rate taxpayer, he needed a solution that maximised tax efficiency and investment return.

🔍 My Solution:
Drawing on my expertise in Buy-to-Let and access to specialist lenders, I identified a provider open to complex property structures. This approach enabled the client to successfully remortgage, unlocking capital for further investment.

Outcome:
With the remortgage secured on competitive terms, he reinvested in his portfolio, increasing his long-term investment potential. He gained confidence and peace of mind, knowing he had a tailored strategy for continued growth.

💬 Client Testimonial:
“Lyndsey’s knowledge of the Buy-to-Let market and access to specialist lenders made all the difference. He helped me navigate a complex property setup and move forward with confidence.” – Portfolio Landlord, West Wales
