Q: I wonder if someone could advise me please? I am a first time buyer and have not yet selected a property that I would like to buy as I am keen to find out how much I would be accepted for on a 100% mortgage before I start to check the market. I have no deposit and would like to know costs of an interest only mortgage and the other (not sure what that is called?) I would also like to know about fixed rate mortgages and try to get an understanding of which one would be the best for me and my circumstances.

Ask An Expert: Tax Implications?
Friday, July 24th, 2009Q. Hello, I’ve got an interesting question. I currently owe approx £100,000 on my mortgage of the flat I live in. But the wife and I are looking to move into a house in a different area and let out this flat. Now then, my mum has agreed to lend me £100,000 to pay off my mortgage on the condition that I pay her back when I sell the flat, which I don’t want to do now, I would prefer to rent it out as it’s in a good rental area. My concern is the tax implications?

Ask An Expert: Are there lenders who will lend on BTL New Builds at 65% LTV?
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009Q. Hi, I’ve had an offer accepted on 2 penthouse apartments in Berkshire – both are £475,000, each with a rental estimate of £1850 pcm. I’m looking to borrow 65% on a buy to let but my broker can’t find anyone that will lend because they are both new build or because they have tightened their criteria so much it’s impossible.
