Banks are desperate to make money and will do whatever they can to cancel any good deal you have with them and put you on a crappy deal in their favour.
Bankers do something underhand to rip you off. No, I refuse to believe it.
I want to port the mortgage that is on my BTL [I've done it once before] to my main residence, mostly because it's 0.49% above base rate.
.
I would 100% check that making such a change now on a mortgage won't affect the deal you are on.

Just make 100% sure before you do anything.
PS. Sell the BTL. Prices have bounced and people are buying again, now is a good time to unload unless you are in it for the very long term. You can always buy back into the BTL market in the future if it makes sense.
so tenants will pay double an interest only mortgage at 0.49 over base. Your home isn't on as good a rate and you will save more than the excess rent by transferring the mortgage? is that right?
ok so now u need a new mortgage for the btl which the rent won't cover. is that right?
i'm missing something here, did you ask should i keep my btl if it costs me each month and the market is looking uncertain?
That's about right.
BTL mortgage is a repayment type though.
However I'm not just looking at one egg, I'm looking at the whole basket. And I'm pi$$ing a whole lot more money on interest on my home than I'm earning on the BTL, even if it looks good on it's own.
But there's more to it that that.
I'm one of Blair's/Brown's little babies who 15 years later has become used to living with some debt, but I don't need to. Why do I keep doing so? Is it charity?
After this is over my war chest can keep me going for 3 years easy without me having to get out of bed.
I don't know about the rest of you but I've taken a tight skint flint attitude to spending, I've been amazed what I've been able to save and even more horrified what I've been spending for no reason whatsoever. My lifestyle only feels it go better if anything.
