Many Landlords Miss Out on Better Rates Due to:
These challenges can prevent you from securing the best buy-to-let mortgage rates, limiting your investment growth. By leveraging my connections with specialist lenders, I help you navigate these obstacles, increase your approval chances, and unlock the best rates, ensuring you meet your investment goals and maximise your portfolio’s potential.
You’ve found the right property, the rental income stacks up, and on paper, everything looks solid — yet the lender’s offer still comes in lower than expected. Sound familiar?
It’s a common frustration, and it’s usually not your income, credit score, or the property holding things back. The real culprit? The Interest Cover Ratio (ICR) test — a behind-the-scenes calculation that quietly limits how much you can borrow, especially with limited company or SPV buy-to-let applications.
Lenders don’t just look at today’s interest rates. They stress-test your rental income to see if it would still cover the mortgage repayments if interest rates shot up. In other words, your loan amount is based on what your property could afford at a much higher theoretical rate — not what you’re actually paying now.
The result? A smaller loan than you expected. But with expert guidance, tailored structuring, and access to the right lenders, there are ways to work around it — and still get the borrowing you need
Many experienced landlords get declined or offered less than expected because:
The stress rate is cam be set as high as 7.5%, even if you’re fixing at 5%
The ICR threshold can be as high 175% — meaning your rental income needs to be much higher
You’re told to increase your deposit or reduce your loan, even when the numbers feel strong
You feel stuck — especially when refinancing or growing your portfolio
I work with landlords applying through SPVs or limited companies who want clear, strategic advice to overcome borrowing restrictions — particularly when it comes to the challenges of the ICR test.
I don’t just look at what lenders require; I take the time to understand your broader financial picture. That means structuring your mortgage in a way that satisfies lender criteria, optimises your tax position, and aligns with long-term business goals — all in a way your accountant would approve of.
Whether you’re expanding your portfolio or refinancing existing properties, I’ll help you navigate complex lending rules with tailored solutions that make financial sense — not just now, but in the years ahead.
I work closely with you to structure your portfolio lending around your actual income setup—whether that’s salary, dividends, rental yield, or profits—so your borrowing potential reflects your real financial position.
I liaise with your accountant to ensure the mortgage solution we choose works hand-in-hand with your tax strategy—so you’re not just approved, you’re optimised.
With over 30 years of financial expertise, I know how to navigate tricky lender criteria, avoid unnecessary rejections, and match you with lenders who understand complex portfolios.
When it comes to SPV mortgages, I understand the unique challenges faced by company directors and landlords. With over 30 years of financial expertise, I provide tailored solutions that not only secure the funding you need but also address key affordability factors like ICR (Interest Cover Ratio) requirements—helping you grow and protect your portfolio with confidence.
By working with accountant-approved SPV structures, I ensure your investments remain tax-efficient and financially robust. My approach gives you access to specialist lenders and competitive deals that support your long-term goals, while proactively managing ICR restrictions to maximise borrowing potential.
You’ll benefit from one-to-one, personalised advice and close collaboration with your accountant—aligning your mortgage strategy with your wider financial plans and giving you a clearer path to expansion.
To Simplify SPV Mortgages Simple for Landlords & Directors.
You won’t deal with call centres or impersonal advice here. When you work with me, you get direct access to a specialist mortgage broker who offers expert, one-to-one service—focused entirely on helping you grow your portfolio with the right SPV strategy.
I structure your application in a way that not only works for the lender but also keeps your accountant happy — especially when it comes to tax efficiency and long-term strategy.
Investing through a limited company can offer significant advantages, but securing the right mortgage can be challenging. Many lenders shy away from limited companies, while others impose strict lending criteria. Add in complexities like layered company ownership or mixed-income structures, and the process becomes even more difficult.
Whether you’re making your first limited company BTL purchase or expanding a large portfolio, I’m here to provide expert guidance.
