Portfolio Mortgages
What Are Portfolio Mortgages?
Portfolio mortgages are lending products created for professional landlords who own four or more buy-to-let properties.
They allow multiple investment properties to be grouped within a single mortgage, which simplifies both administration and repayment. These mortgages suit landlords who have managed at least one property for a year and are ready to expand their portfolio.
By combining several properties under one arrangement, portfolio mortgages make it easier for landlords to grow, restructure, or refinance their holdings while maintaining flexibility and efficiency across their entire property portfolio.

Professional, Friendly, Experts. Thank you so much!
Jabez and Nikki were amazing. As a first time buyer, they took all the stress of arranging a mortgage away, offering advice and options that I would only be able to get from a broker. Jabez has been proactive throughout the entire process, keeping me well informed and going above and beyond improving my mortgage deal as my house purchase progressed. Well worth the money, and would throughly recommend them for all your mortgage needs!
Excellent Advice & Service!
We had an excellent experience with Financial Service Solutions who helped secure a new deal on our mortgage for another 3 years. They are incredibly professional and friendly. We thoroughly recommend them to others in need of financial advice. Thank you Jazeb & Nikki!
Fantastic service
Both Jabez and Nikki have been extremely helpful throughout the process and have gone above and beyond to ensure our house purchase has gone through as smoothly as possible and were more than happy to do whatever it took to set my mind at ease as a first time buyer - much needed whilst trying to juggle work and a 2 year old. If you are looking for a less stressful house purchase I highly recommend them.
Selling or Refinancing Properties in a Portfolio
When landlords sell or refinance properties within a portfolio mortgage, lenders typically revalue the remaining portfolio. This ensures loan-to-value (LTV) ratios remain accurate and lending exposure is balanced.
- Revaluation: Triggered when properties are sold or refinanced.
- Lender checks: Safeguard both borrower and lender.
At Financial Service Solutions, we help landlords plan ahead, minimising disruption and ensuring refinancing strategies align with long-term portfolio goals.
Portfolio Mortgage Affordability and Underwriting
Lenders assess portfolio mortgage applications using portfolio stress testing, rather than evaluating properties individually. Affordability calculations vary depending on whether properties are held personally or through a limited company, and tax status plays a significant role.
Landlords with four or more mortgaged buy-to-lets are subject to portfolio underwriting rules, which can be complex. Our expert guidance helps streamline approvals, ensuring landlords present their portfolios in the most favourable light.
What Lenders Consider in Portfolio Mortgage Applications
When assessing applications, lenders typically review:
- Property investment experience of the landlord.
- Details of all existing buy-to-let mortgages.
- Assets, liabilities, and overall tax position.
- Property and non-property income sources.
- Financial records such as self-assessments or company accounts.
- Portfolio performance and existing loan commitments.
Financial Service Solutions packages this information clearly, helping landlords meet lender criteria with confidence.
