If you want to buy a home for a member of your family or to enjoy yourself and have no plans to rent it out, then subject to status you should be able to take out a normal residential mortgage and do a straight forward purchase. Key points to consider

  2. The lender will need a good reason for the purchase of the home. Lenders do not want to be lending out money to a buy to let which is disguised as a second home
  3. You will probably need a larger deposit
