Why First Time Landlords are investing now

The UK Buy-to-Let market remains one of the most attractive investment opportunities in the UK, driven by sustained tenant demand and a limited supply of housing with rising yields make it an ideal environment for new landlords. According to the Office of National Statistics, average UK private rents increased by 7.7% in the 12 months to March 2025, reflecting strong tenant demand.

Whether you're planning for future financial security, building a retirement strategy, or looking for passive income, now is a great time to make your first move.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can my client get a Buy-to-Let mortgage if they’ve never owned a property before?

Yes. We’re happy to support first-time landlords, even those without previous property ownership. We take a pragmatic view of each case and assess suitability based on the client’s wider financial profile and investment plans so long as the landlord is not renting a property they, or their family, have previously resided in.

What’s the minimum deposit requirement for first-time landlord clients?

We lend up to 75% LTV, so your client would typically need a minimum 25% deposit. For clients able to contribute more, we may be able to offer enhanced pricing and flexibility.

‍

What property types will ��ɫ��ý consider for new landlords?

We will consider all types of BTLs. ��ɫ��ý will consider standard residential properties, HMOs, Multi-Unit Blocks, and mixed-use developments giving you flexibility to place clients into their preferred investment strategy, even at the start of their journey.

‍

Is there a minimum income requirement for first-time landlords?

No. We do not apply a minimum personal income threshold, which is ideal for clients whose primary income may come from sources like family wealth, passive investments, or international earnings.

‍

Can my first-time landlord client purchase in a Limited Company or SPV structure?

Absolutely. We’re fully set up to lend to Limited Companies and SPVs, even if newly formed. We can work with you to ensure the structure is appropriate and that the client’s long-term goals are supported from day one.
