BTL Adverse Credit — Key Differences from Residential
Buy-to-let mortgages with adverse credit are assessed primarily on rental coverage — the ratio of rental income to mortgage payment — rather than personal income. This can actually work in your favour if the rental income is strong relative to the loan required. Darryl calculates the rental stress test calculation before identifying suitable lenders.

Can I use a limited company structure for a bad credit BTL mortgage?
Yes — some specialist lenders offer limited company BTL mortgages for borrowers with adverse credit. The personal credit of the company director is still assessed. Whether personal or limited company structure is better depends on your tax position and specific credit profile.
I have a portfolio of BTL properties and bad credit. Can I remortgage?
Portfolio remortgage with adverse credit requires a lender experienced in both portfolio assessment and adverse underwriting. Darryl has specific lender relationships for portfolio landlords with complex credit histories.
