Buy to Let remortgage

Buy to Let remortgage

Didn't find your answer?

Original buy to let property cost £250000. Bought with own cash £50,000 and morgage of £200,000. If remortgaging is obtained of £250,000 to replace existing loan of £200000 would all the interest qualify for tax relief or would it be resticted to 200000/250000?

The Inland Revenue website seems to suggest tax relief could be claimed on £250000 ?

Yep.
Draw up a balance sheet and you'll see that there is £50K of equity in the business. Refinancing that to £0K of equity is perfectly reasonable.

All the interest is allowable up to the value of the properties at the time they were first introduced into the rental business.
