Mortgage interest on a buy to let mortgage is not always tax allowable

A buy to let mortgage is typically taken out at the time the property is purchased. As such it falls within HM Revenue & Custom’s guidelines of an expenses needs to be “wholly and exclusively” for business purposes to be tax allowable.

However, if you were to draw additional funds on the mortgage eg for a holiday that element of the interest would not be tax allowable.  That is because what is relevant is not whether it is a buy to let mortgage but what the funds will be used for.

If you draw on a buy to let mortgage for a non property related expense the interest on that part of the loan would not be allowable.
