Buy-to-let conveyancing — what you need to know
Buy-to-let purchases are not simply residential purchases with a different mortgage. There are additional tax, regulatory, and title considerations that a solicitor with investment property experience will handle correctly from the outset.
Buy-to-let mortgage conditions
Buy-to-let mortgages have different conditions from residential mortgages. We act for your lender as well as you and ensure all conditions are met before completion.
SDLT surcharge
Additional SDLT applies to second properties and buy-to-let purchases. We calculate and submit your SDLT return as part of the conveyancing process — including the correct surcharge.
Title and tenancy considerations
If the property is already tenanted, we review the tenancy agreement and advise you on any implications for your purchase — including notice periods and deposit obligations.
Portfolio purchases
If you are purchasing multiple properties, we can handle the conveyancing for all of them. We will discuss the most efficient approach for your portfolio.
Fees & Transparency
We publish typical fees and explain what is included and what may not be included. All fee information is on our dedicated Fees & Transparency page. Your exact quote is confirmed in writing before any work begins.
