We are Guiding you through the PRA Portfolio Landlord Lending Guidelines

PS28/16 stated that lenders must change their interest coverage ratio (ICR) to a standard 5.5% for all products with less than a 5 year term. The second part of the paper involved changes to what is classed as a professional landlord and the stress testing of properties in the background for clients who have more than 4 let properties.
