I'd suggest that you get in touch with a user called AtW.
He is very knowledgeable on mortgages etc, though he couldn't get one for over 15 years. He is a warrior.Comment

New mortgage

If your prospective tenant is a little purple or exhibits simian tendencies then pick another. Those apes think the country owes em a house.
No, what I have repeatedly said is housing is WAY over priced, ZIRP QE and HTB has kept the bubble inflated, and selfish spoon fed lazy baby boomers have built a financial system of fake money and massive gearing, with loose regulation and immoral bankers, then they turned landlords, to really exploit their children.
Don't let me put you off Kitten1978, the mortgage sounds affordable.Last edited by PurpleGorilla; 10 October 2015, 07:52.Comment

Just ignore these buffoons, every newish poster that comes on here gets slagged off, the only winning move is to pretend you're a 20 year seasoned contractor and mention all the thousands of gigs you've done, recruiters you've beaten up and left in a ditch, etc.
I think the only person that can answer your finance question is yourself, by estimating how much of the year you will be working, and what your other outgoings are.
My base mortgage payments are about 750/month and I was comfortably paying them with money to spare on my permie salary, so I am sure a little more would be fine when you're earning 2-3 times as much, but as I say, you need to crunch the numbers.
You also need to consider how much rent you'll be getting from your other property as that should help, and also the term of the mortgage - those payments are quite large and you will be paying a lot of interest if it's a 25 year term. Perhaps a smaller mortgage/property with a smaller mortgage term (same payments) would be more cost effective?
Too many variables but food for thoughtUnless you're the lead dog, the scenery never changes.
