The property market in the UK is an extremely healthy position, with the private rental market booming. More people than ever are entering into this market and looking for good quality rental accommodation.

That being said, it’s not just a surge in rental demand that’s driving the property boom, but also a distinct shortage of supply that’s pushing up demand and prices with it, which in turn is driving up property yields. Yields, in simple terms, is the measurement used to show how much rent you’re able to command, per year, as a percentage of the value of the property.

All of these factors have created a fertile ground for landlords and property investors, and has meant that there’s now much more demand for specialist investor lending and mortgages as a result. With a desperate need for property stock comes a lot more demand for property that can be converted as well as land.

As a result of all of this, HMO properties have become much more popular in recent times, especially in city and urban centres. HMO mortgage, and large HMO mortgage applications have exploded along with these trends, showing that many more property investors and landlords are now looking at this asset class as a great way to earn income.

Because we’ve seen a big increase in enquiries about finance such as a large HMO mortgage, we’ve put together a short guide.

What is a large HMO mortgage?

A normal HMO mortgage is where you borrow money over the long term to fund the purchase of a property that will have multiple occupants. A property is considered a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) if at least 3 tenants live there, forming more than 1 household.

A large HMO mortgage would cover a larger HMO property which would be considered, under law, as a property with 5 tenants or more forming more than 1 household.

For most HMO mortgage providers they have a lending cap of between £500,000 and £1 million, so that would restrict larger HMO landlords from applying, however, there are specialist lenders on our panel who are more than willing to consider larger HMO mortgages for our clients.

So, for the purposes of this definition, consider a larger HMO mortgage as one that is for a property for 5 or more tenants with a value of £1 million and above.

What is a large HMO?

A large HMO, as opposed to small or regular HMO, would be considered as such if there are 5 or more tenants living within the same property forming one household.

A small, or regular HMO is considered as such when 3 tenants form one household.

We work with specialist HMO lenders

If you’re looking to buy or get a mortgage for a large HMO, then it’s important that you work with lenders and providers who understand the market and what it takes to make this successful.

As opposed to a traditional residential mortgage, our lenders don’t just look at your personal credit rating. They like to take a look at the property itself, your experience, and the viability of the project.

Our panel of lenders are all hugely experienced in this field and with HMO mortgages in general, and we have access to lenders that you wouldn’t normally be able to deal with through traditional methods. We work with, for example, pension funds, foreign investors and foreign banks who have an appetite for this type of exposure in the UK with HMO mortgages.

All of our HMO mortgage lenders understand the UK market and judge each application on its own merit.

Can I get an HMO mortgage if I have bad credit?

Yes, you can, although it may mean a slightly longer application process. Of course, each case will be different and will have different requirements, however, your personal credit rating isn’t the be all and end all of any HMO mortgage application.

Speak to one of our brokers to run through what type of bad credit you’ve got, whether that be defaults or CCJ’s, and they can talk you through your options. It may be the case that you’re asked for a slightly higher deposit, or perhaps to put some security forward, or it may even be that the property is a fantastic investment, so it won’t matter.

The truth is, we won’t know until we speak to you and put you forward to our lenders.

Things to consider

First and foremost, it should be said that a large HMO is more work than other types of property. The maintenance and management can be stressful and expensive at times, although the financial reward is what drives many towards these types of assets.

Secondly, these types of bigger HMO mortgages don’t take any longer than normal applications, as long as the legal paperwork and valuation aren’t delayed, of course.

Finally, experience is quite key when lenders are considering your application, so if you’re completely new to the market then it may well be worth considering whether it may be easier starting with a smaller project first.

Who can apply?

Realistically, anybody can apply, but again it’s worth mentioning that experience can be a key factor with these types of HMO mortgages.

However, individuals, partnerships, Limited companies, and Special Purpose Vehicles can all apply for these types of HMO mortgages.

Can I apply if I’m overseas?

Yes, you can. Expats and overseas applicants can apply for these HMO mortgages, and anybody looking to invest in these types of properties.

The application process may be a little lengthier in that you may be asked to prove your income, resident status, etc, however that doesn’t exclude you as a non-resident.
