    Looking for a lease to buy B&B

    Looking for a lease to buy B&B

    Most of the brokers we have spoken too tick their boxes. If we don't fit in the boxes they just reject it instantly. If it was just a mortgage on a house it would be simple. Don’t understand why it’s so hard to get a mortgage on a B&B.

    They won’t take our business plan into consideration as it’s a new business concept and they wouldn’t give a mortgage. As the books show ok the current B&B is not profitable. It is what we similarly do now.

    We have spoken to many brokers and because the b&b we wanted to buy is running at a loss. Like a lot of B&Bs are that are up for sale. They seen that as to high of a risk and its not mortgageable. Obviously you don’t know the current clinate.

    We have been looking for a B&B in our price range for over 2 years. We are actually found one which was absolutely perfect. Everything was set to go until we tried getting the mortgage. The deposit and everything was in place. We did not realise it would not be mortgageable. We have jumps...
