  • We are currently in Dubai and renting out our property in Hackney. This was unplanned but an opportunity came up and we took it. The rental income is insufficient to cover the mortgage so we transfer money each month to cover the difference. Anyway this morning our lender got in touch informing me that because the property is being let out and has been for almost two years we will have to pay 1.5% interest on top of our current mortgage rate. One option is to sell up but this will be far from easy as I am so far away. Would it be possible to remortgage with Whistletree and get consent to let?
  • Me and my husband are soon to send the final details to our IFA for them to move forward with our mortgage application to buy our first property together.

If we come clean that there is no consent to let from Whistletree will it adversely impact the chances of getting a mortgage?
