• I want to acquire a second property having recently bought a maisonette on normal mortgage. Plan to purchase in a few months time.

• My house had been tenanted for three years from 2010-2013 while living overseas. I have a letter dated June 2010 from my building society granting consent to let. In the letter it clearly stipulates that the consent to let is valid for "the remaining term of the mortgage". I have not changed product since the letter was sent. I now plan to move house and rent out my existing house. However, my IFA has suggested that the 2010 consent to let letter may not be sufficient for the new lender Swansea Building Society for the property I intend to buy.Your view would be appreciated
• I am intent on acquiring a property, letting two of the bedrooms out to help cover the mortgage with Swansea Building Society, and then moving on in a few years time - at which point the property would be fully tenanted. Is it likely that Swansea Building Society would look at this unfavourably as I will have been granted a non-commercial homeloan as opposed to a B2L or consent to let? I've heard that the worst possible outcome is that they can repossess the property, is this correct?
