What do these fields mean?

When measuring affordability for buy-to-let mortgages, lenders stress test applications against mortgage rates rising to 5% and sometimes to 6.99%, even if the agreed final rate is lower, to guard against unexpected rises in costs for landlords.

Lenders also typically require a ‘buffer’ of 125% - i.e. the rental income each month must be 125% of the mortgage repayments. Enter your expected monthly rent, select 5, 5.5 or 6.99 (some lenders stress test at a higher level, so you may want to see all scenarios) and press calculate.
