NatWest mortgages are available to over 18s. Your home or property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
How much Stamp Duty would I pay on a second home?
If you buy an additional property in England or Northern Ireland, you may have to pay a Stamp Duty surcharge. This is an extra percentage of Stamp Duty on top of the normal rate.
Other similar charges may apply in Scotland and Wales.
Buying a holiday home
Your lender will need proof that one of your properties is used as your main home.
You'll also have to explain the purpose of the second property.
You can then apply for a second residential mortgage to help buy your new home.
If you get a mortgage for a holiday home, you won't be able to rent it out. If you're intending to rent it out, you should apply for a commercial loan.
Buying a property to rent out
Look into the condition and location to make sure it's a sound investment.
The amount you earn in rent will have to exceed an agreed percentage of your monthly mortgage repayments.
Some lenders will limit the amount you can borrow to buy a rental property, or the number of buy to let mortgages you can have.
