Fees & Costs: Why we have a fee
Specialist situations need a dedicated buy-to-let mortgage broker, not just an automated search. While “fee-free” brokers focus on vanilla applications, we provide access to specialist lenders where our fee reflects the complex manual underwriting and portfolio analysis required to turn a “no” into a “yes.”
1. Free consultation
We review your portfolio, SPV structure, or individual investment goals at our own risk. We never charge a fee just to discuss your lending options.
2. We prove our value first
- Success-based: Fees are only payable once you decide to move forward with a formal application.
- Manual advocacy: From HMO density to Inter-company loans, we package your case specifically for underwriters to ensure the highest probability of an offer.
3. Understanding specialist BTL rates
- Complex lending, competitive rates: Specialist BTL lenders may have different criteria than the high street, but we navigate the market to secure the most competitive stress tests and ICRs available to you.
- The long-term goal: We treat your mortgage as a business tool. Secure the asset now, maximise your rental yield, and build a sustainable property business for the future.
You aren’t alone in this market. Data from UK Finance confirms the BTL sector is twice as stable as the residential market, with arrears at just 0.50% compared to 0.92% for homeowners. With BTL arrears falling 25% year-on-year, professional property investment remains a resilient, well-regulated asset class for those with the right specialist advocacy.

Your BTL mortgage document checklist
To secure a specialist BTL offer, we need to verify the “business case” for your investment. Having these ready will significantly speed up your application:
The essentials
- Proof of Identity: A valid Passport or Photo Driving License.
- Proof of Income: Your last 3 months of payslips (or 2 years of certified accounts/SA302s if you are self-employed).
- Bank Statements: Your last 3 months of personal bank statements (showing your everyday spending and income).
- Credit Report: A recent copy of your credit report (we recommend using Checkmyfile as it shows data from all major agencies).
- Proof of Deposit: Evidence of your savings or a gifted deposit letter.
- Address History: Proof of residency for the last 3 years (like utility bills or council tax statements).
For your portfolio (if applicable)
- Portfolio schedule: A simple list of your existing properties, current mortgage balances, and rental income.
- Tenancy sgreements (ASTs): Evidence of current rental income for any properties you already own.
- Proof of deposit: Evidence of savings, equity release, or a Director’s Loan statement for Limited Company purchases.

Our Professional BTL Application Process
For professional landlords, a mortgage isn’t just a loan – it’s a business tool. We provide a streamlined, specialist-led process designed to maximise your borrowing power and secure your assets.
Step 1: Portfolio & Yield Analysis
We don’t just look at one property in isolation. We review your full portfolio schedule and current rental yields to ensure your new application meets the latest PRA Stress Test requirements without over-leveraging your existing assets.
Step 2: Structural Optimisation (SPV vs. Personal)
Before submitting to a lender, we confirm the most efficient application route. Whether you are purchasing in a personal name or via a Limited Company (SPV), we ensure the application is packaged to meet specific lender criteria for inter-company loans and director’s dividends.
Step 3: Direct Access to Specialist Lenders
The most competitive BTL rates – especially for HMOs, Multi-Unit Blocks (MUFB), and Holiday Lets – are often “intermediary only.” We provide direct access to these specialist funders that do not deal with the general public or high-street brokers.
Step 4: Long-Term Capital Strategy
We don’t just close a deal; we plan your next one. We factor in your future investment goals, helping you choose products with flexible exit strategies or further-advance options so you can continue to grow your portfolio.
