I am looking into buying another house and renting out my current property.

When I saw the mortgage advisor he worked out how much I could borrow without a deposit for which I have 15k. (The money is being raised from equity within current prop).

He was suggesting keeping my deposit. Is there a good reason to do this? Why not just get the borrowing right down and thus the interest paid??

I would always keep some back for emergencies btw.

in other words ,use your rent to pay rent elsewhere (plus it saves on other expenses like contributing towards estate agents holidays)

superoo is correct , it could be 10 years before prices again hit the levels of 2007

Remember to take what comes out of the mouth of a mortgage broker/estate agency with the same weight as the words barfed out by an injury lawyer.
