HMO FAQs — Purley

Is an HMO mortgage more expensive than a standard BTL?

Rates and fees can be higher due to the specialist nature of HMOs, but this is often balanced by higher rental income.

Can I live in one room and let the rest?

That becomes a house with lodgers rather than a pure investment HMO and usually needs different mortgage products. A regulated adviser can explain your options.
