London investments range from single apartments to HMOs, multi-unit buildings and mixed-use property. The finance discussion should reflect the actual tenancy, lease, licensing and condition, together with deposit, rental assessment and existing portfolio commitments. Where a limited company or ownership change is being considered, tax and legal advice should be obtained before the mortgage determines the structure.
