The mortgage over my property is with Bank of Ireland for my property in Mawsley. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. In the event that I decide to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Bank of Ireland?
Bank of Ireland must be informed of your intention in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Bank of Ireland’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Bank of Ireland directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel lawyer.

It is improbable the vendors are driving this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to instruct your own,trusted Mawsley conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
