Let-to-buy is where a mortgage borrower keeps hold of their existing home and rents it out to tenants, and then buys a new home for themselves and their family to live in.
Let-to-buy involves having two different types of mortgages – a residential mortgage on a property you’re moving to and a buy-to-let mortgage on your previous home.
However, there are lots of factors to take into account before opting to go the let-to-buy route and since changes to stamp duty on second homes in April 2016, let-to-buy has its own unique challenges.
