Holiday Let Mortgages and Bad Credit
A holiday let mortgage is for a property you intend to rent out on a short term basis to holidaymakers rather than as a standard long term tenancy. Holiday let mortgages are assessed differently to standard buy to let mortgages because rental income is based on occupancy rates rather than a fixed monthly tenancy.
The holiday let mortgage market is smaller than standard BTL and when adverse credit is involved the number of available lenders narrows further. However specialist lenders do consider holiday let applications with adverse credit. Darryl Dhoffer has experience arranging holiday let mortgages for adverse credit investors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a holiday let mortgage with bad credit? ›
Yes but holiday let mortgages with adverse credit are a specialist niche. Only certain lenders offer both holiday let products and adverse credit assessment. Darryl Dhoffer knows which lenders these are and what their specific criteria are for holiday let adverse credit applications.
How is rental income assessed for a holiday let mortgage? ›
Holiday let lenders assess income based on projected annual rental income rather than a fixed monthly tenancy. They typically want to see that the property will generate enough income across the year to cover 125-145% of the mortgage payments. Evidence of similar property rental income in the area or existing booking history if you already let the property helps support the application.
What deposit do I need for a holiday let with bad credit? ›
Holiday let mortgages with adverse credit typically require 25-35% deposit. The exact amount depends on the credit issues and the property location. Popular holiday destinations with strong rental demand can sometimes attract more favourable terms. Darryl will advise on the minimum deposit for your specific situation.
Does holiday let income count for affordability? ›
Holiday let income is assessed differently to standard buy to let income. Lenders use projected income based on occupancy rates. If you already operate the property as a holiday let existing booking records and rental history provide strong evidence. Darryl will present your income evidence in the strongest possible way to the right lender.
Can I live in my holiday let property? ›
Standard holiday let mortgages prohibit the borrower from living in the property as their main or secondary residence. If you want to use it yourself for part of the year this must be within the limits set by your lender. Darryl will explain any restrictions that apply to holiday let mortgage products and advise on the most suitable structure for your intended use.
