  • I purchased a house a couple of years ago in Leeds when I worked locally. I got a promotion which involved working in Wimbledon. I travel down on Sunday afternoon and live with a cousin mid week. I decided onmoving home to avoid the commute. I am considering the possibility of renting out my existing home. The mortgage is with Platform Home Loans, would I have to change my mortgage product or ought I apply for consent to let?
  • My fiancee and I are first-time buyers, presently renting. We want to purchase a ground floor flat in Merton. We want to move there, but will need to wait for a job - perhaps a couple of years. Would we have to get a buy-to-let mortgage? Could we take a residential mortgage with Platform Home Loans, even though we won't be moving in straight away? Or could we reside there for half a year, then start renting it with consent to let from Platform Home Loans? I'm only evaluating suggestions that are entirely legal, and wouldn't breach the terms of the Platform Home Loans mortgage.
  • I applied for consent but I did not get it as I did a remortgage in July but Woolwich does not give consent if mortgage is less than 6 months old. Now I am worried when 6 months is gone are they going to find some other criteria that will not be ok. As a backup plan I can remortgage with Platform Home Loans but will they give me consent straight away?
