Products
SPV mortgage products for West Midlands, England landlords
We arrange the full company buy-to-let product set on West Midlands property: SPV purchase and remortgage, portfolio refinance, HMO and multi-unit finance, bridge-to-let, and the refinance leg when a landlord moves personally held stock into a company. The company is assessed at a 125% interest cover ratio rather than the 145% applied to higher-rate personal borrowers, and mortgage interest remains fully deductible inside the company, the two reasons most new buy-to-let purchases here now complete through an SPV.

Frequently asked questions
How much deposit does an SPV need for a buy-to-let in West Midlands?
Most limited company buy-to-let lenders cap loan-to-value at 75%, with a handful going to 80% at a rate premium. On the £225,000 median sold price across the West Midlands towns we cover (HM Land Registry sold prices), that means a deposit of around £56,250 at 75% LTV, or £45,000 at 80%. The deposit usually enters the company as a documented director's loan, repayable to you tax-free as cash allows.
Which West Midlands towns are most active for buy-to-let purchases?
By sold transactions over the last 12 months (HM Land Registry sold prices), the busiest markets we cover in the county are Birmingham (7,914 transactions), Coventry (3,359 transactions), Wolverhampton (2,233 transactions). Deeper markets matter to lenders because valuation evidence is stronger: more comparable sales means fewer down-valuations on company purchases.
How much can a limited company borrow on the median West Midlands metropolitan county rent?
Lenders stress the rent at a notional rate, typically 5.5%, against a 125% interest cover ratio for limited companies. On the £1,021 median monthly rent across the county's covered towns (ONS Price Index of Private Rents), that supports a maximum loan of around £178,211 on rental cover, before the 75% loan-to-value cap is applied to the specific property. The same rent assessed at the 145% personal-name ICR supports meaningfully less, which is the structural advantage of the company wrapper.
Which lenders offer limited company buy-to-let mortgages in West Midlands?
The specialist SPV panel quotes across the county: Paragon, Kent Reliance, Fleet Mortgages, Foundation Home Loans, Landbay, alongside intermediary-only lenders such as The Mortgage Works, Leeds Building Society, Coventry Building Society that you cannot approach directly. With the county's covered towns averaging a 5.03% gross yield, rental cover is generally workable at full leverage, so the choice comes down to pricing, fees and criteria fit.
